Creating a password manager (The long way). 

This is definitely gonna be a long process ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ.

The purpose of this app is primarily to store passwords in a text file (possibly transitioning to a database in version 2 of KaiPass), hash the stored passwords (maybe include encryption and decryption in version 2), and randomly generate secure passwords for users.

I know hashing isn’t typically a part of a password manager, but hey, it’s my project, so I’ll do what I want, innit? This project is part of my journey to explore and understand different topics in programming and cybersecurity through hands-on experimentation.

Also, a big hello to my little Pokémon friend who’ll be joining me on this adventure. ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

What would I be using?

For this project, I’ll be using Visual Studio Code, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), similar to IDLE, but nicer to use and with additional features as well. 

The programming language I’ll be working with is Python. I’ll also incorporate Python libraries like Tkinter for the graphical user interface and modules like hashlib for hashing functionality.
