Description

Hi HN, I’m Pavel.I built Sklad because, as a DevOps engineer, I was frustrated with how I handled operational data. I constantly need access to SSH passwords (where keys aren't an option), specific IP addresses, and complex CLI one-liners. I realized I was storing them in insecure text files or sticky notes because standard clipboard managers felt too bloated and password managers were too slow for my workflow.I wanted a "warehouse" for this data—something that lives quietly in the system tray, supports deep hierarchy, works completely offline, and looks industrial.The app is built with Rust and Tauri v2. The core technical challenge was mapping a local JSON tree structure directly to a recursive native OS tray menu. This allows you to navigate nested folders just by hovering, without opening a window.For security, I implemented AES-256-GCM encryption with Argon2 for key derivation. When the vault locks, the sensitive data is wiped from memory, and the tray menu collapses to a locked state.It was an interesting journey building this on the Tauri v2 Beta ecosystem. I’d love to hear your feedback on the implementation, especially regarding the Rust-side security logic.Repo: https://github.com/Rench321/sklad
