+/**
+ * @defgroup pkg_libb2 BLAKE2 hashing library
+ * @ingroup  pkg
+ * @brief    C library providing BLAKE2b, BLAKE2s, BLAKE2bp, BLAKE2sp
+
+ *
+ * # BLAKE2 RIOT package
+ *
+ * BLAKE2 is a cryptographic hash function specified in RFC 7693.
+ * It claims to be faster than MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2, and SHA-3, yet at least as
+ * secure as the latest standard SHA-3.
+ *
+ * BLAKE2 comes in two flavors:
+ *
+ * - BLAKE2b (or just BLAKE2) is optimized for 64-bit platforms—including NEON-enabled ARMs—and
+ *   produces digests of any size between 1 and 64 bytes
+ * - BLAKE2s is optimized for 8- to 32-bit platforms and produces digests of
+ *   any size between 1 and 32 bytes
+ *
+ * For more information, see the [BLAKE2 website](https://blake2.net/).
+ *
+ * ## Usage
+ *
+ * Add it as a package in your application's Makefile:
+ *
+ * ```makefile
+ * USEPKG += libb2
+ * ```
+ *
+ * Include the BLAKE2 header in your code:
+ *
+ * ```c
+ * #include "blake2.h"
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @see https://github.com/BLAKE2/libb2
