Make a password manager with python

If you are like me, you probably have logged in many websites so far. But rarely remember any password of them. And sometimes, the websites won't let you sign up until you add a 'super-strong password.' But as a matter of sorrow, you forgot that password the next day.

There is a simple solution to this gigantic problem. Use a password manager. But nowadays, maintaining privacy in this vast online world is quite impossible unless you don't use the internet at all. But you aren't going to that, are you?

You even may find your password in the dark web selling for a couple of dollars. So, using a third-party password manager doesn't sound safe to me. You should also be concerned about this. (I am not demotivating you guys not to use a third-party password manager.)

So, what is the solution? Luckily we are developers and we have mighty weapons in our hand. Programming!!! Yes, my friend, you guessed it right. We are gonna make a password manager on our own. Sounds exciting? Because this really is exciting.

I am thinking to make a series where I will break the project probably in three parts and upload them every 2 days. I have already started coding and made significant progress. But I needed to stop because of the other projects I am currently working on.

In the next post, we will get our environment set. 🌲

So, what are you waiting for? Just hop right in and get your own password manager up and running.
