* General considerations for implementers of this specification, and for applications that use the interface defined in this specification. See :secref:`implementation-considerations` and :secref:`usage-considerations`.
* A detailed definition of the API. See :secref:`library-management`, :secref:`key-management`, and :secref:`crypto-operations`.

:cite-title:`PSA-PQC` is a companion document for version 1.3 of this specification.
`[PSA-PQC]` defines an API for :term:`Post-Quantum Cryptography` (PQC) algorithms.
The PQC API is a proposal at BETA status.
The API defined by `[PSA-PQC]` is provided in a separate specification to reflect the different status of this API, and indicate that a future version can include incompatible changes to the PQC API.
When the PQC API is stable, it will be included in a future version of the |API| specification.

In future, companion documents will define *profiles* for this specification. A profile is
a minimum mandatory subset of the interface that a compliant implementation must
provide.
