Backends (``quantum_safe.backends``)
=====================================

Cryptographic backend adapters.  You rarely need to interact with these
directly — use :func:`~quantum_safe.backends.get_kem_backend` and
:func:`~quantum_safe.backends.get_signature_backend` only when you need
to force a specific backend.
