-There are no functions that handle key generation, because secp256k1 simply requires a 32byte random number that needs to only be validated. I assume most applications will prefer and or have better random number generators than I can assume. Use your preferred or platform CSRNG.
-
## Motivation
At the time of building this project I have not come across any C-only libraries that exposed functionality for nostr specific cryptography. IMO it is easy to use the secp256k1 library incorrectly. In the process of building [NVault](https://github.com/VnUgE/NVault) NIP-44 came out in December and I realized my libraries were falling short for my needs for proper and safe nostr cryptographic operations, and I needed to start over and start with a good base that has all the basic functionality built with trusted and tested libraries.

-### Easy mode
-A [Taskfile](https://taskfile.dev) file is included for easy building if you wish to build in easy mode! Use the `task --list-all` to see all available commands. The default command `task` will build the library in release mode using defaults. You may specify extra cmake build variables using the `USER_ARGS` variable on the command line.
+Install library globally
+```shell
+cmake --install build/

+### Using Task
+A [Taskfile](https://taskfile.dev) file is included for easy building if you wish to build in easy mode! Use the `task --list` to see all available commands. The default command `task` will build the library locally in release mode using defaults.

+Build in debug mode with tests enabled
+```shell
+task build-debug
+```
+
+Build in debug mode, with testing enabled, then runs the test executable after it's built
+```shell
+task test
+```
+
+Install globally. Run after running the default task or `build-debug` task
+```shell
+task install
+```
+
+Task accepts any extra arguments following `--` and passes them to the cmake build command.
+Example:
+```shell
+task <command> -- -DCMAKE_X_X=x
