title: Password Strength Tester
---

This weekend I put together a simple password strength tester.  You can
try it out [here][link].

Features:

* Simple interface.
* Open source ([MIT licensed][mit]).
* Easy to inspect.  The interface code is contained in a single, 
  <300 line JavaScript file.
* Self-contained.  No external connections for assets, social media
  sites, analytics, etc.
* Can be run offline (no internet connection) or locally (by downloading
  an archive of the [the Git repository][repo]).

Built with:

* [zxcvbn][]: JavaScript password strength estimator.
* [Bulma][]: Open source CSS framework.
* [font-awesome][]: Open source font icons.

Links:

* [Password Strength][link]
* [Source][repo]
