bitwarden_rs

bitwarden_rs is an unofficial Bitwarden server implementation written in Rust. It is compatible with the official Bitwarden clients, 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.

Supported features

bitwarden_rs implements the Bitwarden APIs required for most functionality, including:

• Web interface (equivalent to https://vault.bitwarden.com/)
• Personal vault support
• Organization vault support
• Password sharing and access control
• Collections
• File attachments
• Folders
• Favorites
• Website icons
• Bitwarden Authenticator (TOTP)
• Bitwarden Send
• Live sync (WebSocket only) for desktop/browser clients
