I made this a while back to ease the barrier to entry to Hashcat: https://github.com/brannondorsey/naive-hashcat

Not that it's that big of a barrier, but it can be somewhat daunting to new password crackers.

Or, if you want to get experimental with it, I've been working on a distributed browser password cracker here: https://github.com/brannondorsey/distributed-password-cracki.... It can be embedded in websites to borrow your visitor's CPU cycles to crack md5 hashes.Note that it is very slow in comparison to Hashcat, but its a proof-of-concept for something that I am hoping to soon add WebAssembly + WebGL GPGPU cracking to.
