Encode or decode messages with the Vigenère cipher, a polyalphabetic substitution cipher that shifts each letter by a repeating keyword. Letters keep their case, and spaces, digits and punctuation pass straight through; the key only advances on actual letters. Pick encrypt or decrypt, supply a keyword (letters only are used), and get the transformed text plus the effective key. Vigenère Cipher runs locally; nothing is uploaded.
