How to use login details to make a key for AES encryption and decryption in angular6
I have recently starting looking into AES encryption for a side project. I am researching this till now so if there is something wrong about my concept please correct it.
According to me If i want to encrypt something in AES I have to encrypt it by a 128bit key which The user must preserve for encryption and decryption of data.
So for my project I have two options that I generate that key and tell user to preserve that key which will be my plan B. I wanted to generate a key using user login details which will be generated every time user logins he can use that key for encryption and decryption.
But I cannot figure out a way to convert credentials into 128bit key.
Thank you for any support.
I possible can anyone please refer some resources for learning about AES more.

You need to use algorithm like PBKDF2 or bcrypt to convert user password into a key of desired length. These algorithms belong to a class of algorithm called key derivation functions. If you are using Java, you'd find code in this answer stackoverflow.com/a/53015144/1235935.
