Pass me

This web tool allows you create a different password for all your accounts using only a single master password.

It is hosted here: https://mthaak.github.io/passme/
but it can also be downloaded and used locally since it is only a single html file.

Usage

All you have to do is type in the domain (e.g. Github) and your master password and press 'Copy to clipboard' or 'Show password'. When copied, Ctrl+V can be used anywhere to paste your account-specific password.

How it works

The tool uses the non-invertible SHA256 hashing algorithm to generate a password from the domain and the master password. This means that it is practically impossible to recreate your master password from the account-specific password if it would be compromised. Also since everything is done client-side your passwords can not be intercepted. The generated passwords are strong, short and reasonably memorable.
