Nextcloud Passwords Desktop Client

An offline-capable, cross-platform, desktop client for the Nextcloud Passwords app app. Currently, only reading is supported and no passwords can be added or modified. This is, because this client was created as a read-only offline client, since the browser extension works online only.
