What are Passkeys and how do they work? | Passkeys allow for a simple, yet extremely secure, sign-in experience. Learn more about what they are and how they work in this article. (clerk.com)

A tech service named Clerk put together a nice breakdown of how Passkeys work on a technical level. I've found many other explanations too focused on technical definitions rather than a conceptional overview or so simplistic they were unhelpful for me. This one feels like a nice balance between not enough information and too much.

The article is broken down into the sections below:

  • What are passkeys?
  • How does public key crypto work?
  • A practical use of public-key cryptography
  • How are passkeys more secure than a username and password?
  • Clerk supports passkeys [this last section is irrelevant to anyone not interested in the service provided by Clerk]

Clerk provides some sort of user management service; I don't know nor care if it's any good.

Open-source and privacy focused offline translation in your browser (www.producthunt.com)

Hi everyone. I'm launching Linguist Translate, an open-source, full-featured translation solution with an embedded offline translator based on the Bergamot Project created by Mozilla.

Site: https://linguister.io/

GitHub: https://github.com/translate-tools/linguist

Today, Linguist is launched on ProductHunt. Support the project who really care about privacy: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/linguist-translate

Linguist is not just a wrapper over Google Translator like many other extensions. You can use any translation service with Linguist, thanks to custom translators! You may even deploy any machine translation (like LibreTranslate) on your localhost and then add this service to Linguist.

All features are included: text translation, full-page translation, selected text translation, Text-To-Speech, dictionary, history, and even more.
