 The Idea of this Project is to do all of the Encryption client-side using Javascript or WebAssembly, so the Website will work without any Server and can be packaged as a single html file and distributed this way.
 
 Ideally, I would like for this to be able to en/decrypt any content. A nice to have Feature would be to make it work in a "self-extracting" way, so you could basically generate a html file that prompts you for a password and decrypts its content.

+## Technology
+This website is essentially a frontend to the Browsers [SubtleCrypto](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/SubtleCrypto) cryptography API.

+## TODO
+- Make sure the cryptography is sound
+- Configuration options (Password length, type)
+- Passhphrase option
