Bcrypt Hash & Verify — Kotlin source

Hash a password with bcrypt or verify a password against an existing bcrypt hash. Configurable cost factor. Runs entirely in your browser.

This is the Kotlin implementation — the same logic the interactive tool runs, in a shareable, citable form.

// Pure-Kotlin bcrypt (Blowfish-based password hashing) - zero dependencies.
//
// Language: Kotlin 1.9+ (JVM), standard library only.
// Ported from src/lib/bcrypt.ts — display source, part of CosmoDev's
// polyglot tool pages. Functionally equivalent to the TS reference
// (verified there against OpenBSD/Go reference vectors): implements the
// full algorithm from the Provos-Mazieres paper (USENIX '99) - EksBlowfish
// key setup, the 64-fold encryption of "OrpheanBeholderScryDoubt", and
// OpenBSD's $2b$ hash format. Produces hashes that interoperate with bcrypt
// implementations everywhere.
//
// The Blowfish P-array (18 words) and S-boxes (4 x 256 words) are the first
// 8336 hex digits of the fractional part of pi, stored below as hex strings
// and parsed once into IntArrays at class load. Where the TS reference
// jumps through `>>> 0` hoops to keep JS doubles in u32 range, Kotlin Int
// arithmetic already wraps mod 2^32 - identical bits, half the ceremony.
