Description

As I was reading through this documentation, I noticed a problem with the encryption section, as follows:
(Format: base64(sha256(sha256(salt+password)) base64(salt)), so I started to think that I have to use base64 to encrypt the whole content of the back of the encryption, but in fact it's not true, there is a ')' missing, it should be like this base64(sha256(sha256( salt+password))) base64(salt), so that the result of the separate encryption can be used.
