**Coming up with a good master password is hard, remembering it is even harder.**

This is a simple Web-App that demonstrates a method of creating strong passwords that are still easy to remember. 
It also provides time estimates how long it would take an attacker to crack a password 
using the [zxcvbn](https://github.com/dropbox/zxcvbn) library developed by Dropbox.

The app is build using a simple Flask backend and can be deployed using docker.
Right now it is running on Heroku free tier.

## Running locally with Docker

First, build the image:
```Shell Session
docker build --tag strong-but-simple-passwords .
```

Then run it:
```Shell Session
docker run --publish 5000:5000 --env SECRET_KEY=something-secret --env FLASK_ENV=development strong-but-simple-passwords
```

Now open `localhost:5000` in a web-browser and you will see the app.
