## What it is
KeePassXC-Browser is a WebExtension that integrates the KeePassXC password manager with Firefox, Chrome/Chromium, and Edge via native messaging. It communicates through keepassxc-proxy to retrieve credentials, fill login forms, and generate passwords directly in the browser.

## Use cases
- autofill passwords from keepassxc in the browser
- browser extension for my password manager
- fill login forms using a local password database
- generate secure passwords while browsing
- connect firefox to keepassxc
- avoid cloud password managers and keep credentials local

## When to choose
- you already use KeePassXC and want seamless browser integration
- you want a local, offline password manager instead of cloud-synced services
- you need HTTP Basic Auth handling and password generation in the browser

## When to avoid
- you don't use KeePassXC as your password manager
- you need a standalone password manager without a desktop app
- you want cloud-synced credentials across devices without running the desktop application
