Building a Free, Open-Source Password Manager

Always wanted to build a free-to-use password manager but never got to it because of workload.

Agentic coding has changed that. Tools like Cursor and Copilot have made it possible to ship real software in a fraction of the time.

The plan:
• Open source from Day 1
• End-to-end encryption, zero knowledge architecture
• Simple, clean UI, no bloat
• Built on weekends, shipped in public

I'll be documenting the entire build process here, architecture decisions, mistakes, learnings, everything.

First update coming soon.
