I Built a Password Manager Using Python, Streamlit, and Fernet — Here's How 🛡️

The author built a simple password manager app using Streamlit and Fernet encryption to store passwords locally and securely. The app uses Python, Streamlit, and the cryptography library to encrypt and decrypt password data. The required libraries are cryptography, os, json, and getpass. The app generates an encryption key, encrypts and decrypts passwords, and stores them in a JSON file. The user can add new passwords and retrieve existing ones using the app. The app uses Fernet encryption to ensure secure password storage. The author provides the code for the password manager and explains how it works. The app has three main functions: generating an encryption key, adding and retrieving passwords, and storing password data in a JSON file. The author encourages readers to build their own password manager to learn about security and coding. The complete code and GitHub repo are available for readers to try and modify.
