Password Manager Project

Password Manager

A secure and simple command-line interface (CLI) password manager. This tool allows users to safely store, generate, and retrieve passwords. Contributions to improve security, features, and usability are welcome. 🎉

What are we building?

We are building a Password Manager CLI application that securely manages user passwords through encryption. It allows users to store, retrieve, and generate strong passwords directly from the command line. The aim is to provide a fast, lightweight, and secure solution for managing passwords without the need for a graphical interface.

Stacks

Here are the main tools/technologies being used for this build. These automatically form the prerequisites.

• Python 3.8+
• SQLite (for local password storage)
• Cryptography library (for encryption)
• Click (for command-line argument parsing)

GUIDELINES

• When creating new branch if you're fixing a bug or implementing a feature follow this pattern:
  • fixing: fix/<name-of-fix>
  • feature: feat/<name-of-feature>
• Never commit directly into the main branch. Always create a new branch and PR.
