IMO it's also worth to mention user is required to have Bitcoin Core running (either full or pruned node) which require user to download 500GB+ of blockchain.
Although you can run Whirlpool without a full node, it's not recommended. Any time you are not connected to your own full node, you are sharing data with a third party. Anyone who is in any way serious about their privacy should be running their own node already.

Whirlpool - [Samurai.com]
Just stopped the mistake in the name of the website. It should be samouraiwallet.com, not samurai.com.
