About The Hand Project

The Hand Project is an open‑source platform for secure password management and sharing, focused on privacy, robust access control, and a smooth user experience. Administrators and regular users can safely store and share credentials, leveraging modern technologies such as Python, Flask, PostgreSQL, and Bootstrap. This project was developed by Iman Homayouni in collaboration with artificial intelligence.

Technology stack: Python, Flask, PostgreSQL, Bootstrap.
Role-based access control is managed via the ADMIN_USERS list in config.py. LDAP authentication is provided for integration with enterprise Active Directory systems.
