Password-Manager

Password Manager is a cross-platform desktop app written with help of Node.js and Electron.

This app uses AES-256 Encryption algorithm in Galois/Counter Mode(GCM) mode for encrypting the passwords. It's key is derived from password set by user. It also generates new random Initialization Vector(IV) for encryption when saving passwords.

It is best practice not to save passwords, but if you still have to, save them securely.
