# Third-party notices

`dsh-vaultwarden` is an independent implementation. It is not a fork of any
other project, and its source is its own.

Its design was informed by two MIT-licensed projects, credited below. Both are
included here to satisfy their license terms and to record the provenance of
the ideas that were borrowed. No source file was copied verbatim; the
implementations differ (notably: this plugin talks to the Bitwarden/Vaultwarden
REST + SignalR protocols directly, ships its own WebSocket sync engine, its own
write-back layer and its own settings panel).

## Bitwarden protocol references

The client implements the Bitwarden/Vaultwarden server API. For protocol
details the following upstream sources were consulted (no code copied):

- [dani-garcia/vaultwarden](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden) — the
  server half of the API contract, especially `src/api/identity.rs` for the
  two-factor flow.
- [bitwarden/clients](https://github.com/bitwarden/clients) — the official
  client's request shapes and crypto conventions.

Bitwarden and Vaultwarden are trademarks of their respective owners. This
