5 alternatives to vaultwarden
dani-garcia/vaultwarden — Unofficial Bitwarden compatible server written in Rust, formerly known as bitwarden_rs (70,135 stars, AGPL-3.0, auth, database, infra).
These are the closest projects in the JustClaw-It index that we serve licence-cleared code from, ranked by relevance and by our code-quality score (1–10, the mean over each repo's graded components: completeness, code quality, deployability, reusability, strategic value). JustClaw-It does not serve code from dani-garcia/vaultwarden itself (licence class: network-copyleft), so these alternatives are the licence-cleared route.
