FluxKey is a free, open-source password manager built for Windows with a focus on security, aesthetics, and zero compromise. It runs entirely offline — your passwords never touch a server, a cloud, or any third party. Everything stays on your machine, encrypted and under your control.
Built with Python and PySide6, FluxKey features a fully borderless frameless window with a glowing purple neon border, an animated EQ visualizer, and a custom drag-to-move title bar. It looks and feels like a premium application, not a utility tool.
FluxKey is designed around a simple philosophy: your password manager should be invisible when you don't need it and instant when you do. Generate a strong password, save it to the vault, copy it in one click, and move on.
Features
- Master password hashed with PBKDF2-SHA256 + unique random salt (260,000 iterations). Never stored in plain text. Cannot be reversed.
- Vault data stored locally in ~/.fluxkey/ on your machine. No internet connection required. No telemetry. No analytics.
- Live integrity scanning powered by SHA-256 file hashing. When active, FluxKey checks your vault file every 3 seconds and alerts you instantly if any external tampering is detected.
- Full wipe and reset option to permanently delete all vault data and master password from the machine.
- Generate passwords between 8 and 64 characters.
- Full control over character sets: uppercase A-Z, numbers 0-9, symbols !@#$.
- Real-time strength scoring with colour-coded feedback: Weak, Fair, Good, Strong.
- One-click copy to clipboard with visual confirmation.
- Save unlimited password entries with site name and username.
- View, copy, edit, and delete any entry at any time.
- Inline password reveal with a single click — no separate dialog required.
- Each entry displays an ENC badge confirming it is stored in your local vault.
- Scroll-based vault list supports as many entries as you need.
- Fully borderless frameless window with a purple neon glow border.
- Animated EQ visualizer that reacts to the power button state.
- Animated power button with spinning ring and pulse glow effect.
- Custom gear icon in the header that spins on hover — opens the settings panel.
- Drag the title bar anywhere on screen to reposition the window.
- Minimise, maximise, and close controls built into the custom title bar.
- First-run setup prompts you to create a master password before anything else.
- Desktop shortcut created automatically on first launch.
- Change master password at any time (requires current password verification).
- Wipe vault and reset everything — removes all entries and the master password, returning the app to first-run state.
