NestKey — Local‑Only Password Vault (Archived)

NestKey was an experimental local‑only password vault built with Rust and Tauri. The project explored secure storage, modern cryptography, and offline‑first design, but development has been paused in favor of simpler, more focused tools.

Key Features

Local‑Only Storage

All data stored offline with no cloud sync or external services.

Modern Cryptography

Argon2id key derivation and AES‑256‑GCM encryption.

Native Desktop Prototype

Built using Rust and Tauri for a lightweight, secure footprint.

Engineering Notes

NestKey explored secure local‑first vault design but was archived due to complexity and shifting priorities. The repository remains available for reference and may inform future lightweight security tools.
