Show HN: mkpw.dev – client-side password generator (no deps, no tracking)

goforrusty Sunday, February 22, 2026

Built the “happy path” I was missing too often: short URL I can type from memory + 1 click → fresh password in my clipboard. Won't replace your password manager, just handy in certain cases, like borrowed/shared device, fresh install/new profile, helping someone else (“open this link”), VM/SSH/terminal (just need randomness), etc.

100% client-side (Web Crypto / crypto.getRandomValues). No backend. No analytics/telemetry. Source: https://github.com/goforrusty/mkpw.dev (careful: some profanity in code)

P.S.: newpw.dev also works (redirects to mkpw.dev).

Summary
mkpw.dev is a website that allows users to generate secure, random passwords. It provides a simple and user-friendly interface for creating customizable passwords to enhance online security.
