Plass is a minimalist password manager inspired by password-store, offering a simpler interface while maintaining core functionality. It stores passwords as GPG-encrypted files in ~/.password-store and uses got(1) VCS for version control and synchronization. The tool includes password management, generation, and TOTP functionality, currently compatible with pass but may switch from GPG in the future.
Background
Password managers are essential tools for modern digital security, with password-store (pass) being a popular Unix-like solution that uses GPG for encryption and Git for version control. There's ongoing interest in simpler, more minimal alternatives that adhere strictly to Unix philosophy.
