I'm the original author of the Rust keepass crate and wanted to prototype whether it would be possible to build a cross-platform password manager using that crate, Tauri, and Vue.js. It turns out, it is!

I have also come up with a way to compile the keepass crate to WebAssembly, so that I can additionally deploy the app to a web browser without any installation needed. See the architecture page in the docs how that is done.

The app is now working on 4 / 5 platforms that Tauri supports, with only iOS missing since I don't own an iPhone nor an Apple Developer account.

The feature set is still pretty barebones, but the hard parts of decrypting databases, listing entries, etc. are all working, so I wanted to share the proof-of-concept to gather feedback and gauge interest in building this out further.

If are an Android user and you would like help me release OmniKee on Google Play, please PM me an E-mail address associated with your Google account and I can add you to the closed test. I will need 12 testers signed up for a test for 14 days to get the permissions to fully release.
