When I got into ~crypto, I started to write my own password manager with python. I called it mypass¹ and it had a tui with ncurses.

I thought it was okay to write my own password manager because I didn't intend to roll my own ~crypto. I stopped because I never used it myself because there was always something missing before I would use it.

Nowadays, I just self-host vaultwarden and am happy. The Bitwarden CLI is still horrible though.

I also tried to write my own MyFitnessPal app without bloat. When I got into the other ~crypto, I started to write my own cointracker.
