Show HN: Pashword – Hashed Password Calculator
This is beautifully done, great design work.
Scrypt for password stretching seems good. I see you're using CPU cost of 2^15. When storing a password hash you'd want to use 2^17 (with agility to change algorithm or increase cost in the future) [1]. Since you're not storing the result, I suspect the lower number is reasonable.
I don't like simple concatenation when building a salt from two variable length fields. You'll get the same salt for `"foo" + "bar"` and `"foob" + "ar"`, but the salt should be unique. Although I don't think that's an issue for this project since the first is a website.
Using the website in the salt has some issues when there are multiple domains that use the same password. Do I use mail.google.com, auth.google.com, or google.com? trello.com or atlassian.net? What if the website it bought and the new owner changes the domain name? With a password manager, I can just look in my vault to figure out the old domain name.
Phishing is a major way passwords are stolen and this project doesn't seem to do anything to protect against that. A browser extension (and mobile app), that checks the domain name before showing/filling the password could help.
The secret key field let me use `1234` as the key, although the color of the field was red. I think this should either prevent obviously weak passphrases or show a much more obvious warning if when one is used. Using a password found in a breach is also a bad idea (even it the password looks strong). You don't have a way to check HIBP, so users will be vulnerable if they make that mistake. It's too easy to make a critical mistake with the current design.
A bug: I filled out the form but forgot to enable JavaScript. The form posted my passphrase back to the server (https://pashword.app/?website=google.com&username=me&passphr...). I'd recommend changing the form so the submit button doesn't do anything when JS isn't loaded, otherwise the server will learn users passphrases. This is also a good place to remember that the user fully trusts that you wont steal their info (I'm not sure why anyone should trust that).
Also check out other similar projects, lots of discussion which likely applies here as well. I believe one of these supports uses a counter to support password rotation. You'd just need to remember the counter value for each site.

Password managers can be a bit hard to manage, people don't even bother using them. There's https://pashword.app that solves this but not many people know about it.

Ask HN: Tools you have built for yourself?
After being annoyed by most online json formatters out there, I decided to build a simple keyboard-driven one. One of the main things that I was looking for was to have it easily accessible, without the need to open new browser tabs or programs that I might need later like vscode so I enabled PWA for it.
When I noticed https://jsonformatter.com domain was not used I sent an email to the owner and he actually agreed to host my app since it was open source.
There are other people using it right now, but I enjoy using it every time I need to make a json more readable.

Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
I was a bit annoyed I couldn't use keyboard shortcuts in most online json formatters so I build my own mostly for my personal use. After a while I got the idea to ask the guy who owns jsonformatter.com if he wants to host it and after a while he got on board. So there you go : https://jsonformatter.com/
