What Is tinyec

Download and Install tinyec

Build New Curves with tinyec

Perform Point Addition with tinyec

Find Subgroup with Point Addition

Set Subgroup Order to Higher Value

Takeaways:

"tinyec" is a tiny Python library for ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography).
"tinyec" is not suitable for production environment.
You can verify if a point is on a curve or not with "tinyec". But you can not list points on a curve.
You can perform addition of two given points on a curve with "tinyec".
You can perform scalar multiplication of a given point on a curve with "tinyec". But you must set the subgroup order to a value greater than the group order.
