The slightly more awesome Standard Unix Password Manager for Teams. Written in Go.
Password management should be simple and follow Unix philosophy. With
pass
, each secret lives inside of agpg
encrypted file whose filename is the title of the website or resource that requires the secret. These encrypted files may be organized into meaningful folder hierarchies, copied from computer to computer, and, in general, manipulated using standard command line file management utilities. - passwordstore.org
Our target audience are professional developers and sysadmins (and especially teams of those) who are well versed with a command line interface. One explicit goal for this project is to make it more approachable to semi- and non-technical users in the long term as well. We go by the UNIX philosophy and try to do one thing and do it well - always providing stellar user experience and sane, simple interfaces.
Warning: gopass currently works on Linux & macOS. Please feel free to help with others.
