# Password Manager CLI

## Description

The Password Manager is a command-line tool that allows you to store, retrieve and generate passwords securely. It provides a simple way to manage your passwords without having to remember them. This tool uses a master password to secure your passwords. The master password is configured when you first run the tool and is used to encrypt and decrypt your passwords. It is written in Python and uses the cryptography module and mariadb or mysql server to store the passwords. This tool uses `pyperclip` module to copy the password to the clipboard.
