## What it is
A collaborative dataset of website-specific 'quirks' for password managers, maintained by Apple and the community. It includes password rules, shared credential groupings, change-password URLs, and sites with unusual 2FA password schemes.

## Use cases
- generate passwords compatible with specific websites' rules
- map shared credential backends across related websites
- link users directly to a site's change-password page
- handle sites that append 2FA codes to passwords
- improve autofill suggestions in a password manager

## When to choose
- you build or maintain a password manager and want shared website compatibility data
- you need per-site password generation rules
- you want community-maintained credential-sharing mappings

## When to avoid
- you need a full password manager application
- you need general-purpose credential storage or encryption
- you need per-user password vaults

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: auth, security, data-generation
- domain: security, developer-tools, web-development, privacy
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: password-managers, quirks, shared-credentials, password-rules, 2fa, collaboration, password-generation
