This app allows you to securely store and retrieve your passwords. It is designed with a focus on simplicity, security, and ease of use.\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/icon.png\" alt=\"app icon\" width=\"300\"/\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n\n## Features\n\n- **Secure password storage**: Uses advanced encryption to ensure that all passwords are stored securely.\n- **Minimalistic design**: Easy-to-use interface.\n- **Memory cleanup on exit**: Automatically clears all password data from memory when the program closes, eliminating any potential security risks from leftover data in RAM.\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/image.png\" alt=\"app icon\" width=\"900\"/\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n\n## Security Features\n\n- **Encryption Algorithms**: The application utilizes Crypto++'s AES algorithm with GCM mode to ensure confidentiality and authenticity of stored passwords.\n- **Key Derivation**: Passwords are encrypted using keys derived from user passwords with PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2) and HMAC-SHA256, enhancing the security against brute-force attacks.\n- **Secure Random Password Generation**: Includes a function to generate random passwords with high entropy, using Crypto++'s cryptographically secure random number generator.\n\n## Compatibility\n\nZ-Vault is designed to be cross-platform, with primary development on Linux using the X11 display server, which provides the optimal experience.\n\n### Known Compatibility:\n\n- **Linux**: \n  - **X11**: Fully supported and recommended.\n  - **Wayland**: Supported and performs well, but some GUI elements may appear differently than intended. There are no current plans to address these graphical differences.\n\n- **Windows \u0026 macOS**: The application should function with appropriate setups, but has not been extensively tested on these platforms.\n\n\n## Requirements\n\n- CMake 3.5 or higher\n- Qt 5 (Widgets module)\n- C++11 compatible compiler\n- Crypto++ library\n\n## Building the Project\n\nTo build the project, follow these steps:\n\n1. **Clone the Repository**:\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/iman-zamani/Z-Vault.git\n   cd Z-Vault\n   ```\n\n2. **Create a Build Directory**:\n   ```bash\n   mkdir build\n   cd build\n   ```\n\n3. **Configure the Project with CMake**:\n   ```bash\n   cmake ..\n   ```\n\n4. **Build the Project**:\n   ```bash\n   cmake --build .\n   ```\n\n5. **Run the Application**:\n   ```bash\n   ./Z-Vault\n   ```\n\n## Installing Crypto++ Library\n\nTo ensure the application compiles and runs successfully, you need to install the Crypto++ library:\n\n### On Linux:\n\nInstall Crypto++ using the package manager:\n#### Ubuntu:\n```bash\nsudo apt install libcrypto++-dev\n```\n#### Arch:\n\n```bash\nsudo pacman -S crypto++\n```\n\n### On Windows:\n\nUse `vcpkg` to install Crypto++ easily:\n\n1. **Install vcpkg**:\n   ```cmd\n   git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git\n   cd vcpkg\n   ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh\n   ./vcpkg.exe integrate install\n   ```\n\n2. **Install Crypto++**:\n   ```cmd\n   ./vcpkg install cryptopp:x64-windows\n   ```\n\n## Project Structure\n\n\n```\nZ-Vault/\n├── README.md\n├── src/\n│   ├── main.cpp\n│   ├── mainwindow.h\n│   ├── encrypt.cpp\n│   ├── encrypt.h\n│   └── mainwindow.cpp\n├── .gitignore\n├── CMakeLists.txt\n├── LICENSE\n```\n\n    \n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License.
