This project is a simple password manager written for the command line interface (CLI) to help me learn Rust. It lets users securely store, manage, and retrieve passwords. This project uses the bcrypt library to hash and validate passwords, ensuring that user data is secure, it also uses the aess library to encrypt and decrypt passwords saved by the user.
- Securely store passwords
- Retrieve stored passwords
- Manage (add, update, delete) passwords
- Hash and validate passwords using bcrypt
To get started with the project, you need to have Rust installed. Then, you can clone the repository and build the project.
git clone https://github.com/CrescentMnn/password_manager.git
cd password_manager
cargo build
