Craft-My-Pass
Password Security Web Tool
01 // OVERVIEW
A sleek, minimal, neon-themed password generator built during HackManthan hackathon. Integrates the Have I Been Pwned API to check whether generated passwords have appeared in known data breaches.
THE PROBLEM
Most password generators don't check if the generated password pattern has been seen in breach databases, leaving users with a false sense of security.
THE SOLUTION
Combined real-time password generation with HIBP API breach checking, custom text-based generation, and a minimal dark-neon UI focused on usability.

CHALLENGES & OVERCOMING THEM
Integrating HIBP's k-anonymity model correctly — hashing passwords, sending only the prefix, and matching locally — without ever transmitting the full password.
KEY ENGINEERING LEARNINGS
Learned about k-anonymity for API security and how to build security-focused UX that teaches users about password hygiene without overwhelming them.
