+Primitives
+----------
+
+Supports ECDH and ECDSA with `NIST <https://github.com/microsoft/SymCrypt/blob/v103.1.0/lib/ec_internal_curves.c#L16C19-L16C25>`__ curves (192, 224, 256, 384, 521) and Twisted Edwards `NUMS <https://github.com/microsoft/SymCrypt/blob/v103.1.0/lib/ec_internal_curves.c#L303>`__ curves (NumsP256t1, NumsP384t1, NumsP512t1).
+Also custom curves.
+Supports X25519.
