    KeeWeb is a free and open-source password manager compatible with KeePass, available as a web version and desktop apps. The underlying file format is KDBX (KeePass database file).[1]

    Technology

    [edit | edit source]

    KeeWeb is written in JavaScript and uses WebCrypto and WebAssembly to process password files in the browser, without uploading them to a server. It can synchronize files with popular file hosting services, such as Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.[2]

    KeeWeb is also available as an Electron bundle which resembles a desktop app. The desktop version adds some features not available on web:[3]

    • auto-typing passwords
    • ability to open and save local files
    • sync to WebDAV without CORS enabled

    KeeWeb can also be deployed as a standalone server, or installed as a Nextcloud app.[4]

    Reception

    [edit | edit source]

    KeeWeb was praised by Ghacks Technology News in 2016 as "brand-new" fixing the "shortcoming of a web-based version" of KeePass, and by Tech Advisor in 2020 as "well-designed cross-platform password manager".[5][6]
