Me too, but it was mostly to teach myself about OpenSSL, and I feel like the experience have scarred me for life.

I mostly used the Ruby C-bindings, and I feel like finding information and documentation was very difficult, and it was even harder to figure out if there was any best practices I was missing.

It baffles me that so important infrastructure is built upon something that feels this brittle, and it keeps me up at night :-)

Don’t worry, everyone who used OpenSSL APIs feels the same way as you do.
