Documentation: link to the specification separately
Link to rendered copies of the specification on a separate branch, since the implementation is not always up-to-date with the specification. Fix the broken link to the HTML to something that works on the web. Add instructions to generate the library documentation in HTML locally.

## Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Since the Mbed Crypto library is a reference implementation of the PSA cryptography API, the library's API documentation is the PSA cryptography API specification. The PSA cryptography API specification consists of the following documents:
|
||||
The Mbed Crypto library is a reference implementation of the PSA cryptography API. Please refer to the PSA Cryptography API documents for an overview of the library's interfaces and a detailed description of the types, macros and functions that it provides.
|
||||
|
||||
* The [PSA Cryptography API overview](docs/PSA_Crypto_API_Overview.pdf).
|
||||
* The [PSA Cryptography API detailed function reference](docs/PSA_Crypto_API_Reference.pdf), which you can also browse in [HTML format](docs/html/modules.html).
|
||||
There are currently a few deviations where the library does not yet implement the latest version of the specification. Please refer to the [compliance issues on Github](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/labels/compliance) for an up-to-date list.

The PSA cryptography API specification consists of the following documents:
|
||||
|
||||
* The [PSA Cryptography API overview](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/blob/psa-crypto-api/docs/PSA_Cryptography_API_Specification.pdf).
|
||||
* The [PSA Cryptography API detailed function reference](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/blob/psa-crypto-api/docs/PSA_Cryptography_API_Reference.pdf), which you can also browse in [HTML format](https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/blob/psa-crypto-api/docs/html/modules.html).

### Browsable library documentation
|
||||
|
||||
To generate a local copy of the library documentation in HTML format:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make sure that [Doxygen](http://www.doxygen.nl/) is installed. We use version 1.8.11 but slightly older or more recent versions should work.
|
||||
1. Run `make apidoc`.
|
||||
1. Browse `apidoc/index.html` or `apidoc/modules.html`.
