About

This Node.js script will generate a memorable and secure password for you to use. It uses the crypto package to generate a random number, and then randomly assembles a mixture of English words to create a long string which may be used as a password. Take all normal precautions surrounding password use!


Instructions

This assumes you have Node installed on your machine. Clone down this repo, navigate to it, and run

node passwordGenerator.js

from the command line. The script will log a string no less than 12 characters in length and no less than 4 words long.
