# KeyGen

**[Dev Squad](https://daily.dev/sources/devsquad)** · [@sulemanahmedrajput](https://daily.dev/sulemanahmedrajput) · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

KeyGen is a browser-based utility that generates secure passwords, API keys, and framework-specific secrets (such as Django and Laravel keys) entirely client-side using native Web Crypto APIs. No data is sent to a server, making it a safe option for creating sensitive credentials during development and infrastructure setup.

## Content

KeyGen is a client-side utility suite that generates secure passwords, API keys, and framework-specific secrets (like Django or Laravel keys) directly in your browser. Because it uses native Web Crypto APIs without server-side processing, it is a secure way to create sensitive credentials for development and infrastructure configuration without exposing them to the network.
