Argon2id

We've been doing a *ton* of work with Argon2id lately!

If you're not up to date on this password bashed hashing algorithm, then we'd recommend that you read up!

^^^ That doesn't mean that the most popular alternatives (i.e., ssha512 / ssha256) are inferior as solutions to Argon2 when it comes to password based hashing (there are other things that PBKDF / HMAC-based hash functions from the SHA family are superior in, we'll get to those thigns later)

Relevant Links & Resources:

1. Argon2 Specification = https://password-hashing.net/argon2-specs.pdf

2. Password Hashing Competition Winner (yes, this is a legitimate competition) = https://password-hashing.net/

3. Official GitHub for Argon2 = https://github.com/p-h-c/phc-winner-argon2

4. Another Great Git Repo for Argon2 (if you're going to visit the other, it only makes sense to check this one out as well) = https://github.com/antelle/argon2-browser

^^ *side note*: 'Keeweb' (open source password manager, been around 10+ years - very much trusted by the community) has already implemented a version of their password vault client (100% free, as always) that incorporates the Argon2 hash + salting algo.

The relevant code for that facet of its functionality can be found here:
