One Step Back And Two Steps Forward

I sadly was not able to finish my lab on Thursday, but I was able to finish another lab on Friday! I will have to talk to my professor about getting an extension. Hopefully he is understanding..

After doing some research of the tls library I'm using for gemcaps, I found that I am unable to access client certificates which will be very important. This means that I will have to switch to another library. This should be fine, but things like this are always a pain.

I don't like the feeling of retracing my steps, particularly when doing something tedious. Sadly there is no way around it. I need to learn to better motivate myself to do difficult tasks instead of just starting a new project like I normally do.

The library I plan to switch to is called tlse.

It is a simple implementation of TLS 1.3/1.2 using tomcrypt as its crypto library. I think this will work, but I need to do some more research to see if I really want to use tlse.
