SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
A bit of a different tack: consider whether you even need to use a password. I made a comment here to the tune of thinking it makes little sense in most cases. Do passwords actually provide any more protection than obfuscation? Before mindlessly answering 'yes', consider the fact that passwords aren't actually used for secure encryption purposes in Usenet (since the password needs to be shared around), but rather a fancy form of obfuscation. Unfortunately, I don't really have any hard evidence one way or the other, so I don't like making this point (though I'd argue that proponents don't have any evidence either), but I think it's worth the thought.
It was mentioned that encryption/password protection may be reason why you'd stick with RAR.

- Had to compile ngPost myself on Linux since the old AppImages used old SSL library. Now my compiled version doesn’t recognize that I have par2 installed o my system. How can I make ngPost find that one? (It does detect my /use/bin/rar execufable)
