# bitwarden_rs

bitwarden_rs is an unofficial Bitwarden server implementation written in Rust. It is compatible with the [official Bitwarden clients](https://bitwarden.com/download/), and is ideal for self-hosted deployments where running the official resource-heavy service is undesirable.

bitwarden_rs is targeted towards individuals, families, and smaller organizations. Development of features that are mainly useful to larger organizations (e.g., single sign-on, directory syncing, etc.) is not a priority, though high-quality PRs that implement such features would be welcome.
