The SCRAM discussion is spread across two threads mainly with hundreds
of emails, which may discourage even the bravest. Here are links to
the important documentation:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/auth-methods.html#auth-password
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/sasl-authentication.html

And PostgreSQL implements SCRAM-SHA-256 following RFCs 7677 and 5802:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5802
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7677
