Hey there, Product Hunters! I'm Alex, a software engineer who loves to build small and useful apps and tools. I've built Swifty as a part of an educational project where I was teaching students. Password manager seemed like a nice idea to showcase desktop apps development with Electron. And in the end, I decided to share with the world what we came up with as I've started to use it and improve it for myself. It is still in beta and may have some minor bugs :) However, it is lightweight, non-obtrusive, intuitive and free, so you might want to check it out.

1- about encryption passwords? 2- is ti sync on various devices?
Alex Chaplinsky
@daidardi 1 - All sensitive data is encrypted with AES-256 algorithm 2 - You can sync between devices with Google Drive for now

Do you have any plan to publish Android and iOS app?
Alex Chaplinsky
@amirrammari Yes, some time in the future. iOS would be first.

Hey Alex this looks great at first glance. I had a fantasy of building something like it but I'm glad I don't have to anymore. Without looking at the source code, I'm assuming you are handling the encryption in JS/clientside?
Alex Chaplinsky
@brbcoding Hey, well right now things are encrypted in node.js process not on client side. But for security sake it makes sense to encrypt data as soon as possible, so encryption is going to migrate to client side in next releases.
