A small side project to encrypt files for Dropbox and Google Drive. Encryption happens locally in the browser via JavaScript. The key never leaves the local computer. Happy for any feedback or comments ;)

Don't put your crypto experiments online where they could harm someone who naively relies on them.

Yeah, look what happened when someone leaked Ron Rivest's RC4 cipher. People still naively rely on it!
