Does anyone knows if 'passweys' will be implemented in open source password managers like BitWarden or KeyPassX, etc. ? Or do we need to rely on Apple/Microsoft

Does anyone knows if 'passweys' will be implemented in open source password managers like BitWarden or KeyPassX, etc. ? Or do we need to rely on Apple/Microsoft/Google for this to work?
- dwaite 4y ago1Password and Dashlane have web extensions which replace any integrated browser support with their own UX and functionality. I do not know the current release state of those extensions. I personally hope there is more of an 'officially supported' integration in the future with the various browsers and platforms. "Passkey managers" need to be able to integrate with native applications just as well as they do with web apps inside browsers. The fall-back of 'I'll just copy and paste the password over' won't work if the credential isn't text.
- psanford 4y agoThe specification is fully open and most of the components have already been implemented in various open source libraries. The nice thing about passkeys is that they are just a FIDO2 implementation with a few extensions. That means any site that supports passkeys will also support other FIDO2 implementations, including the existing open source FIDO2 projects.
