## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

wifi-password is a small macOS shell utility by Guillermo Rauch for answering a common local-support question: what is the password for the Wi-Fi network this machine is using? Its README frames the tool as a quick way to print the current network password, print a named SSID's password, or pipe the result to the macOS clipboard.

### Projektgeschichte

The project's changelog records its initial release as 0.0.1 on February 14, 2015, followed the same day by 0.1.0, which defaulted to quiet output when stdout was piped. The GitHub repository was also created on February 14, 2015, matching the changelog's origin date.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

wifi-password became widely copied for such a tiny script. By July 2026 the upstream GitHub repository had about 4.6k stars and 262 forks, and its README documented installation paths through shell/package ecosystems as well as direct curl installation.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The typical use is interactive and local: run `wifi-password` for the current SSID, `wifi-password <ssid>` for a named network, or pipe the output into `pbcopy` when sharing credentials. Its niche is not enterprise secret management; it is a convenience wrapper around the local macOS Wi-Fi/keychain workflow.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

wifi-password is package-nerd notable because it is almost the smallest useful form of a CLI package: a shell script with a memorable executable name, very little release machinery, and a large adoption footprint relative to its code size.

### Zeitleiste

- 2015-02-14: 0.1.0 changed piped output behavior.
- 2026-07: Upstream GitHub repository showed about 4.6k stars and 262 forks.
