Show HN: German-Language Diceware (pferd-batterie-tacker.com)

Probably a very niche interest, but here we go.

I built a German-language implementation of XKCD: Password Strength [1], which in itself is presumably inspired by diceware passphrases [2].

# Tech:

FastAPI + Bulma, hosted on uberspace.de.

I‘m not a software developer per se, but did CS50 ages ago. Now mostly data stuff.

Build time: 2 days total. My first "real" web project with this stack.

# Features:

- Generate German passphrases of 2-12 words

- Word repository containing 4800 common German words

- Confetti

# Stuff I’m planning / thinking about:

- Extended word repo (60,000 words)?

- Capital letters?

- Numbers?

- API?

- Entropy calculator?

Would love if you give it a spin, even if you don’t speak the language.
