# plass -- manage passwords
-plass is a password manager inspired by password-store but reimplemented
-with a smaller and (IMHO) cleaner interface. It doesn't have fancy
-trees nor colors in the output; the absence of these is considered a
-feature.
+plass is a password manager inspired by password-store in the essence
+but completely reimplemented with a smaller and (IMO) cleaner interface.
+It doesn't have fancy trees nor colors in the output; the absence of
+these is considered a feature. It aims to stay closer to the "UNIX
+phylosophy" by trying to do one thing only and to it (hopefully) well.
-In addition, plass uses got(1) to manage the password store and bundles
-a small utility to generate TOTP codes: totp(1). Password generation is
-done with a separate, but bundled, utility: pwg(1).
+With plass every password lives inside a gpg(1) encrypted file somewhere
+inside `~/.password-store` which is managed with the got(1) VCS to keep
+track changes, recovery accidental overwrites and synchronize it across
+devices. Two helper utilities are bundled:
+ - pwg(1): password/passphrase generator
+ - totp(1): TOTP generator
+
To build and install it, execute
$ make
