How it works roughly: https://blog.lesspass.com/lesspass-how-it-works-dde742dd18a4...

It seems they take info from the site (its name?) plus your master password and hash them - "LessPass uses PBKDF2 with 8192 iterations and a hash function sha-256."

I guess they then produce something of the required length and characters from the hash.

Guess it's ok till someone finds your master password.
