Purr: a simple Scratch URL shortener
That's what I was thinking, as it's already secure enough (I think?) using replit's env variables. you don't need to hash a password if only you're using it and its stored in an environment variable. sha256 is nonetheless an insecure algorithm that shouldn't be used. i always bcrypt and salt passwords that actually need to be hashed

Before you create a topic:
Always search for duplicates or other similar topics before making an umbrella topic, e.g., “The Mac Topic”.
- Is it about something you are planning on making but haven't made yet? If so, please wait to post until you have created a working prototype. This is a key factor to keeping the ATs as clean as possible.
- The ATs aren't technical support. It is perfectly valid to ask questions about things related to programming, but not issues with external websites, apps, or devices. Most sites have their own support system; try asking there!
- Is it related to something you are making in Scratch? (This includes OSes and other Scratch projects) If so, please post in Collaboration, Show and Tell, or another similar forum.
- Is your topic questionably “advanced”? Try browsing the other forums to see if your topic fits better in one of those.
- Issues with Scratch itself should be put in Bugs and Glitches.

I don't really feel like adding anything else to Purr right now because I'm currently making something else. (more like derailed lol) So, if you want to add something, you can just fork Purr here.

Yeah but I don’t think you can get that domain because it’s only for people who are at mit Another bug!
Someone can make a domain like this —
https://scratch.mit.edu.random.domain
and it'll pass the scratch URL test.

This looks like a topic that someone would necropost on after a year or 2

theres only one admin though, and yeah, sha256 isnt needed since its already in an env var you don't need to hash a password if only you're using it and its stored in an environment variable. sha256 is nonetheless an insecure algorithm that shouldn't be used. i always bcrypt and salt passwords that actually need to be hashed
