## Description

Password Hasher NG offers a secure and convenient solution to managing unique passwords for all your online accounts. Instead of storing passwords, it generates a unique password for each site based on your masterkey and configuration settings, enhancing your online security and simplifying password management. This updated version builds on the legacy Password Hasher, delivering improved convenience and protection.

Additionally, Password Hasher NG includes a standalone HTML version to use independently, providing flexibility for users who prefer an offline or portable password generation tool.
