Obsidian CryptoPad

Obsidian Plugin to encrypt and decrypt text

CryptoPad is an Obsidian plugin that allows you to encrypt and decrypt text using a password.

It uses the Web Crypto API to perform encryption and decryption, ensuring your data is not tied to a specific implementation and can be decrypted using any tool that supports the same standard. In fact, I implemented a Google Chrome extension to prove that point.

I designed it to be keyboard-friendly, allowing you to encrypt and decrypt text without leaving the home row keys just like in vim.

Grab it from Obsidian Plugins.
