Vaultwarden
Bitwarden-compatible password manager for storing, synchronizing and finding credentials, secure notes and other secrets in an encrypted vault.
Overview
Vaultwarden centralizes credentials, passwords and other sensitive data in a vault available from several devices. The service is based on Vaultwarden, a lightweight self-hostable implementation compatible with official Bitwarden clients.
It is a good choice if you want a more open password manager that is practical day to day and supports better digital hygiene by avoiding weak or reused passwords across services.
