Kivarion is a modern, fast, and secure desktop password manager that works with the KeePass format (.kdbx files). Built with Tauri 2 and Vue 3, it provides a native user experience with a strong focus on security.

• Full KDBX 4 support — securely work with KeePass 2.x databases.
• Secure decryption — uses Argon2 (WASM) for key derivation.
• Three-column interface — convenient navigation with a group tree, entry list, and resizable detail panel.
• Structure management — create, rename, and delete groups and entries.
• Global search — the search field in the top bar filters entries across the entire database, regardless of the selected group. It searches the Title, UserName, URL, Notes, and custom fields by both name and value. Matching is case-insensitive and substring-based. Protected fields, including passwords and hidden custom fields, are excluded from search.
• Attachment support — view, preview (images and PDFs), and export files attached to entries.
• Website favicons — automatically fetch icons for entries through icon.horse.
• Password generator — create strong passwords with configurable options.
• Auto-save — immediately write changes to the file after every operation.
• Personalization — supports light, dark, and system themes.
• Native experience — integrates with the operating system through Tauri, including dialogs, filesystem access, and system paths.

• Sensitive fields are handled through the kdbxweb library's ProtectedValue.
• Native operating system APIs are accessed through Tauri to isolate filesystem access.
