FAQ

What is the default algorithm?

SHA-256 is the default when no algorithm is specified. It produces a 64-character hex digest.

Should I use MD5 for security?

No. MD5 is provided for legacy compatibility and checksums only. For security-sensitive use cases, always use SHA-256.

Is the output hex or Base64?

The output is a lowercase hexadecimal digest string. This is the most common format for hash comparisons and storage.
