v0.0.1

First release of CipherLab, a desktop app for learning classical cryptography.

Download

Download CipherLab.zip below (Windows 10/11, 64-bit). You don't need Python.

  1. Unzip the whole folder anywhere.
  2. Double-click CipherLab.exe.

Keep the files together. The exe needs the other files in its folder.

Windows may show a warning the first time. The app isn't code-signed, so SmartScreen or your antivirus may say it is unrecognised. Click More info, then Run anyway.

What's in v1.0

  • Lab: encrypt and decrypt with Caesar, Atbash, Vigenère, ROT13 and Reverse
  • Learn: a lesson for each cipher with the formula and a worked example
  • Custom ciphers: build your own by configuring Caesar, Vigenère or Substitution, or by writing your own Python encrypt and decrypt functions
  • Favourites, open and save text files, copy and clear buttons
  • Your custom ciphers and favourites are saved automatically

Notes

  • Custom code runs as real Python, so only run code you trust. Code that runs too long is stopped after 10 seconds.
  • Your saved data is stored in ~/.cipherlab/save.json.

Source code and full documentation: see the README in this repository.
