Created a fingerprint module , that also allows passkey on linux

I've been working on hiya, a fingerprint authentication daemon for Linux.
It's a drop-in D-Bus replacement for fprintd. It ships a PAM module so fingerprint authentication works for sudo, login, and lock screen. On top of that it adds FIDO2/passkey support and SSH security key support through your fingerprint sensor, and uses TPM 2.0 to seal credentials at rest. There's also an XDG Desktop Portal provider and rate limiting built into the daemon.Written mostly in C
Still early. GitHub: https://github.com/10toothhtoot01/hiya
Also, this solves the passkey support that browser require, At least for websites that I usually require passkey on..

TPM sealing for credentials at rest is a nice touch That's exactly the kind of security detail people like to see documented clearly

I just use Bitwardens passkey system. That way I can use my passkey across systems
