Safety & Security

Lodestone Core is written entirely in safe Rust, and uses#![forbid(unsafe_code)]. However we can't guarantee the safety of the crates and binaries we link to, as those may use unsafe rust.

Lodestone is created with security as a top priority. While most of the safety critical code such as login and permissions management have been tested thoroughly, no formal security audit has been done for any part of Lodestone.

Contributing

Lodestone is still new and we have a lot of features planned for this year. Either way, we'd love to hear your feedback! If you have any suggestions, leave a GitHub issue or talk to us on our Discord.
