Vaultwarden

Your passwords, on your own server

About

A password manager you host yourself, compatible with every Bitwarden app. Passwords, cards and notes, encrypted before they reach the device.

Notes

Self-hosted Bitwarden-compatible password manager. Single Rust container with embedded SQLite — every official Bitwarden client (browser extension, mobile, desktop) talks to it unchanged.

All vault data, attachments and the SQLite DB live in the mounted data directory. Set a strong ADMIN_TOKEN to unlock the /admin panel; leave it blank to disable that panel entirely.

Open signups are ON initially so you can create your first account; turn them off from this service's config right after you register. The platform's domain wizard already terminates TLS for you, so no extra cert work is needed.

Alternative to: Bitwarden, 1Password, LastPass

Run it on your own hardware.

Obacht is in a closed pilot phase. Put yourself on the list. We let people in a few at a time, so it can take a while.
