This is awesome. Is one of things I was hoping to happen when I first heard about wasm. Nothing against JavaScript, but I is nice that other languages can now be first class citizens on the web as well.

In Portugal we have a company that provides a service that is very similar to what you described (creation of virtual CCs which can only be used 1 time, or X times by one retailer, for subscriptions). The service is called MBway (previously

I must agree with you. Between these 2 frameworks, even though they have their differences (and lots of them), they are mostly equivalent. My recommendation these days goes like this: If you are more familiar or prefer Python use Django. If

Indeed, the responsibility belongs to the company that is providing the proprietary software/product. Otherwise it would send the message that good documentation shouldn't be provided because the "community" will handle

I've made the complete switch around the year 2012. At the time it felt strange not using Google, however nowadays the sentiment is completely the opposite I'm so used to DDG that using Google feels somewhat awkward. I really like

Completely agree. I also have been using DDG for a few years and got used to the bangs. The results for a general search usually are good enough, so don't I even bother to use Google directly.

Agree. Currently keybase can be used as the key-sever url supplied by the user, but in the future making a real integration to take advantage of some cool keybase features would be nice. Added the suggestion to the discussion issue on githu

That was one of our concerns, to receive information you can setup different "boxes" with an expiration date. Each box as an hard to guess url (such as https://hawkpost.co/box/19f1e7b9-f200-47ec-b5ff-918a9483a

Vault is an awesome tool, but I'm not sure if it lets an "outsider" submit information in an easy way. Some sort of integration with vault looks like a nice idea.

Thats an use case that we also encounter often, we are still thinking about a solution (be it through Hawkpost or something else). The other way around is definitely an harder problem, if we want to keep it simple for the non-tech savvy us

on hawkpost the encrypted blob only goes through the sending queue and is never stored permanently on the machine.

In my opinion when it is possible to secure the data. People often need to share secrets such as passwords or keys to access some service or server. When compromised depending on the key it can bring some serious consequences (example: htt

That is something I already though about but never found anything about it on the Internet, or any discussion that might lead to a way of solving that problem. It might be an interesting project. Either way, I added that line to the readme

You are right on this one. The only protection against this situation implemented (right now), is that the email address to where it will be sent and the fingerprint of the key that will be used to encrypt, are shown to the user of the link

Nothing is stored and probably the most relevant difference is the medium, you might not have those contacts in a secure e2e encrypted chat (probably they only use skype), but almost everyone uses email.

Your point is valid and the project should always run through HTTPS (with HSTS). All assets are served from the local server.

This is the price for the "free" upgrade to windows 10. I really don't like this trend of turning your personal computer into a thin client, where its properties can be manipulated remotely by the vendor like if it was a web
