RSA Cryptography Authentication Proof-of-Concept
This project was a request by Structured Programming lectures in Computer Science college.
It runs with both a Python front-end CLI structure and API Endpoints running with Flask.

Usage
This application is deployed with both the client main.py
and the Flask API app.py
. You have to run both to be able to reproduce the concept.
- First, run the Flask API with the Virtual Environment (venv) active:

By default, flask run will run app.py.
Your API should now be running at http://localhost:500/
.
- Open up another CLI and run the main application:
