# Portable Tomb :: the crypto undertaker runs everywhere
<!-- [![continuous integration tests badge](https://github.com/dyne/tomb3/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/dyne/Tomb3/actions) test coverage status for Ubuntu-20, FreeBSD-13 and Mac/OSX. -->
## ⚠️ WORK IN PROGRESS 🛠️
This is the portable version of [Tomb](https://github.com/dyne/tomb) using [Veracrypt](https://www.veracrypt.fr) in place of cryptsetup.
[![software by Dyne.org](https://files.dyne.org/software_by_dyne.png)](http://www.dyne.org)
# Purpose
Portable tomb achieves direct **interoperable access to tomb volumes** between:
- GNU/Linux
- MS/Windows using WSL2
- Apple/OSX using [MacFUSE](https://osxfuse.github.io/)
- FreeBSD
as well reduce dependencies and in particular use only the **POSIX sh interpreter**.
## References:
- [Milestone on v2 repo](https://github.com/dyne/Tomb/milestone/8)
- [Feature poll](https://github.com/dyne/Tomb/issues/409)
## Features
The following v2 features will be ported:
[ ] mount bind
[ ] ps / slam
[ ] resize
[ ] index & search
[ ] bury / exhume
## Dependencies
- FreeBSD: `fusefs-libs3 fusefs-lkl e2fsprogs util-linux`
- Linux: `fuse3 util-linux`
- crossplatform [Veracrypt binaries](https://files.dyne.org/tomb3/third-party) console-only
### Note on Veracrypt
The way upstream developers distribute Veracrypt is far from meeting our minimalist needs, but the console-only binary once installed has a few library dependencies and is all what we need. We will likely setup our own build (and eventually need to [fork veracrypt's commandline-client interface](https://github.com/dyne/Tomb3/issues/2)) meanwhile binary builds of Veracrypt v1.25.9 are provided for download on our own file repository for testing purposes: **use at your own risk**.
