What is Vaultwarden?
Vaultwarden is a lightweight server that speaks the Bitwarden protocol, so the official Bitwarden apps and browser extensions work with it. Your passwords live in a vault encrypted on your own devices.

Questions about Vaultwarden
Can you see my passwords?
No. Bitwarden apps encrypt your vault on your device; the server only stores the encrypted data.
What if I forget my master password?
Nobody can recover it, which is what keeps the vault private. Use a hint you will remember and keep an emergency copy.
Is it the official Bitwarden server?
No. Vaultwarden is an independent, compatible server; the official Bitwarden apps work with it.
