    Isn't that why most people recommend you just let someone else manage the passwords if you can avoid it at all?

    Also, welcome!

    @Rekonnect yes you should but we still wanted to teach these students about encryption in case they ever needed it. And thank you

    Oh yeah. Def teach secure practices and encryption. But in a real production thing, I'd just use log in with (X site) that way I don't have to worry about password storage liability lol

    @Ashkin oh yes, yes it is. But recently saw another project turned in. They were storing the password in a hidden html div
