Ask HN: Good high-level cryptography library for Haskell?

3 pointsnjrc9discuss
On HN

Is there a high-level cryptography library for Haskell, ideally with sensible defaults, so that a beginner could get started without shooting themselves in the foot?

Cryptonite seems widely used but explicitly warns in its README that, “If you have no idea what you’re doing, please do not use this directly. Instead, rely on higher level protocols or implementations.”

Haskell-crypto seems good, but is listed as “experimental” which is dissuading.
