Password validity hinting

In plain words

Password Validity Hinting is a utility that provides real-time feedback on password strength and requirements as users create them. Designed for anyone setting up accounts or changing passwords, it helps users understand what makes a password valid before submission. The tool shows which criteria are met, reducing frustration from rejected passwords and improving security awareness during account creation.
