#### Very simple Python3-based GUI application to generate secure and random passwords.

Very simple Python3-based GUI application to generate secure and random passwords.

**Features**
The main purpose of this application is to generate random and strong passwords. It lets an user choose:

1. Whether to include lowercase, uppercase, digit or punctuation individually or all of them.
2. Minimum number of each cases to be included in a password.
3. Whether to exclude some characters for each cases individually while generating a password.
4. By default, the generated password is hidden with `*` characters in the generated field to avoid shoulder-surfers. The user has the choice to view it using `Show/Hide` button.
5. Show password strength and comments on generated password to help users create strong passwords.

**N.B.: This application does not save the generated password. So make sure you save it somewhere safe like using Firefox Lockwise.**
