Bitwarden Auto-Backup Manager
IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ: To use Bitwarden Auto-Backup Manager, you need to make sure the Bitwarden Desktop application is already installed and you're logged into a Bitwarden account.
Welcome! My project features Bitwarden Auto-Backup Manager, a user-friendly application that creates local, encrypted auto-backups for your Bitwarden vault (without your master password).
For the longest time now, Bitwarden (the password manager) has refused to implement backup functionality into their applications, more specifically the cloud-hosted solution. This left us users without an easy way to securely back up our vault data in the event of a server shutdown or other emergency. This Electronjs-based application fixes this very problem by providing reliable, automatic backups you control.
The best part? Bitwarden Auto-Backup Manager is powered by the official Bitwarden clients library (found on GitHub) for backup file generation, as well as CryptoJS for PBKDF2 encryption/decryption methods, allowing you to decrypt your backups at any time! Your vault is synced with the help of the Bitwarden Desktop app (for credentials) and the Bitwarden API.
I built this application back in July of 2024, but I noticed that it lacks many expected features and nice-to-haves. Also, the code could definitely be much improved, which is why I decided to revamp this project during this Summer!

Timeline
I've been working on a few bug fixed behind the scenes, including an issue reported on GitHub where Bitwarden users without a full name set weren't being displayed.
I've been working on adding a simple backups tab to view your backed up vaults, as well as extra error handling!
Previously, the application was only able to create automatic backups for one single account when logged into Bitwarden Desktop. I've been working on revamping the UI to match the new Bitwarden style, and implementing multi-account backup systems! Also, I've been working on restructuring the code and libraries.
