Password Strength Evaluator

Password Strength Evaluator is a tool to evaluate the strength of passwords and provide recommendations to improve their security. This tool also checks if your password has been exposed in any data breaches using the Have I Been Pwned API. Additionally, it stores the evaluation results in JSON and CSV files for further analysis in the future.
