⚙️ How It Works

1. Choose Settings

Users can customize:

• Password length (e.g. 8–20 characters)
• Whether to include:
  • Uppercase letters
  • Lowercase letters
  • Numbers
  • Symbols

2. Generate Password

Click the "Generate Password" button to create a new random password based on the selected criteria.

3. Copy to Clipboard

Click the "Copy" button to copy the generated password to your clipboard. A small notification (optional) confirms the action.

🧠 JavaScript Logic (Overview)

• Character pools are defined for each type: uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols.
• Based on user selections, a character set is assembled.
• A loop runs length times, selecting random characters from the pool.
• Clipboard API (navigator.clipboard.writeText) is used to copy the password.
