Inspiration

After recently learning about the existence of web trackers on the internet that watch and record the tendencies of internet users, we as a team realized how important internet security is. Often times when creating passwords people choose simple ones as they are easy to remember. This puts the personal information and data of users in the hands of hackers. We created our program to fix this program and ensure that users stay protected on the internet.

What it does

In our program, users are able to select their password length and specialize the various characters, such as whether they want numbers or special characters included, that compromise their passwords. Utilizing this information, our code generates a randomized password that is sure to secure accounts.

How we built it

We built our program in Visual Studio Code utilizing the Python programming language.

Challenges we ran into

Given that we are new to programming, we as a team had trouble essentially turning our ideas into code. We were able to work through this by breaking down the program into steps and attacking them one at a time.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

In our code, we implemented many methods that were previously new to us. We as a team were proud that we took a step out of our comfort zone and were able to learn more through the creation of this project.

What we learned

After completing this project, we learned that we are capable of more than we thought. Before this event, we would've never imagined that we would have been able to code a functional program on our own.

What's next for Password Generator

If given the opportunity to devote more time to our generator, we hope to implement an additional feature that would give users the ability to store their various created passwords.
