Are you experienced with GTK and Rust ? :gnome: ❤️ :rust:

We are looking to contract someone to work on the new GNOME Password Manager 🔑

We want it to become a core/default app and help secure millions of users.

You'll be working with the GNOME Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to building emancipatory technologies for everyone.

Please send resume / portfolio to stf@gnome.org

Boosts welcome :boost_love:

Loving the idea of securing more users, but why introduce another password manager?

How about improving one of the existing ones, integrating it more tightly with Gnome?

Take KeePass, give it a better interface but use the already developed underlying logic/infra?

Perhaps there is a proposal or some sort of analysis reaching this conclusion as the "best" one?

@sonny I know of one Jia Tan, he's pretty good with open source and critical infrastructure I hear and he's looking for a new gig

@sonny April 1st, the first Monday after the xz incident, is perhaps a bad day to post a job working on a security feature :toot:

@vt52 why?

@sonny Ohhhh, very neat! Is there some kind of design document/feature document?

E.g., sync support 0:-)

@sonny I would love to apply, but I don't think I have the time :(
(Nor would my imposter syndrome allow it :))
Happy to see more Rust adoption though

@FineFindus don't let the imposter syndrome hold you back 🙏

But yeah otherwise, for a job you need time 😃

I am working on a GTK/#Relm4 password manager already 😎
But it is a client for #BitWarden/#VaultWarden only.
You want to build a local one?
