Help on a new project

[birinight]

I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to post this.

Here's the thing. I want to create an application like RoboForm( RoboForm: Password Manager, Form Filler, Password Management ) that works on Linux, Windows, MacOS X, and Mobile also. I already created Kpgen( https://sourceforge.net/projects/kpgen ) that is a password generator, and I want to keep Kpgen Independent because this new project need a good password generator that doesn't relies on the bloated windows random generator.

This project will have a main application build on QT toolkit and the corresponded browser extension. Firefox, IE, Safari, and Chrome are the browsers that I'm planning to support.

For those who are unfamiliarized with RoboForm, roboform is an application that allows you to keep your passwords, and sensitive information encrypted, and also automatically fills web forms. It's a great application, but it has 2 major flaws on my point of view. It's proprietary and the source is closed and there's no Linux version.

This project is going to be made whatever I have help or not.
But I do need help. First, I don't own a Mac so help will be appreciated to maintain and administrate the Mac OSx version. Also a Windows Manteiner will help a lot and free me to develop the main application.

I have other Ideas for the future. For example made a portable version that has executables in all platform versions and can virtually work on any computer.

Also an online version, is in my toughs, but since we are dealing with sensitive information, we have to be sure that is absolutely secure.

If you want to help you have to be proficient in C++.
I will also need artists for Icon making and other stuff.

You will have to understand that this is a open source project so if you want to help it will be for the fun and the learning experience.

Currently Kpgen uses Crypto++ Libraries, but I want to implement my own encryptation libraries, as soon as they will be stable and secure enough(and fast).

If you're the kind of person that with proper motivation and time you can solve anything, then I need your help.

You can leave a message here or you can email me at ammorais at users.sourceforge.net

Moved to correct forum.

what made you chose QT ?

That's an easy one.

Qt can be easily implemented on OS X, Windows, Linux, and Embedded devices. On KpGen I've just programed the Linux version an ported to Windows with very little modification. Just a #defines here and there.
Here's some screen-shots.

Linux Version


Windows Version


Qt now is tri-licenced with GPL, LPGL, and Commercial licenses.
Qt SQL Drivers are very good(I'm using Sqlite3 to the databases).
Qt in not bloated, and it's very easy to learn.

This starts to seem like a Qt commercial, but the last and not least major reason is. I do like Qt.
