A simple and fast javascript-based password generator
- choose length of password (min 6)
- include a personal string (e.g. your name, birth date, ...) [not recommended]
- copy to clipboard
- debug information
- add / remove ui elements with keywords
- 'readable' option (remove all special characters)
- abstract certain characters (e.g. 1 -> ! or A -> 4)
- Add the latest jQuery via Google Hosted Libraries to your project head
- Add the
pwgen.jsor (pwgen.min.js) file aswell
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="path/to/pwgen.js"></script>
</head>Add this at the end of your file:
<script>
$('.your-class').pwgen();
</script>- Add the
style.cssorstyle.min.cssfile to your project head - fully responsive design (
.pwgen's size gets adjusted based on screen size). The responsive design can be toggled. See here.
<head>
<link href="path/to/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

<script>
$('.your-class').pwgen({
'foo': bar,
'dog': lazy
});

});
</script>- container uses responsive design
- password has a minimum length of 8
- password has a maximum length of 12
- 'foo' gets included into every password [again not recommended]
- 'foo' gets appended on the right
- no length input field is displayed (results in random number between 8 [inclusive] and 12 [inclusive])
