Bcrypt Hash & Verify — TypeScript 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 TypeScript implementation — the same logic the interactive tool runs, in a shareable, citable form.
// Pure-TypeScript bcrypt (Blowfish-based password hashing) - zero dependencies.
// 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 (verified against OpenBSD/Go reference
// vectors in bcrypt.test.ts).
//
// 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 Uint32Arrays at module load.
