Why/User Benefit/User Problem

When Users Make Registering in a site they need password and may they save a weak one so the password generator help them a lot.

What/Requirements

secure algorithms to make sure passwords are safe for example:

Format based on Chromium:
i. 15 characters long
ii. At least one of each of:
"abcdefghijkmnpqrstuvwxyz"; // no 'l' or 'o'
"ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ"; // no 'I' or 'O'
"23456789"; // no '1' or '0'
iii. Then fill the remaining 11 characters with a random selection of the 4 categories above.
iv. Randomly shuffle the order of the characters we’ve chosen

Acceptance Criteria (how do I know when I’m done?)

you must open a site for example wikipedia or bugzilla then fill user name and when you click on password textbox an option must visible on top of the keyboard like Suggest strong password and must create a unique password.

We don't have any designs for this feature. It is not a good first issue.

Very essential feature which will help prevent users from using weak passwords. Firefox desktop already has this feature

I hope the password generation feature is added to Firefox mobile and/or Lockwise soon.

Could Mozilla make these two apps combined or work together efficiently?

It's possible and even likely that they might get rid of Lockwise and add all it's functionality to the mobile browser.

Some site recquires at least one special character in the password @ []^_!"#$%&\'()*+,-./:;{}<>=|~? .
I think the passwords generated by the firefox password generator must fullfill this recquirement.
