📖 How to Use Htpasswd Generator (Step by Step)

💡 What is .htpasswd?
- ✔️ The .htpasswd file stores usernames and hashed passwords for Apache basic authentication.
- ✔️ Each line follows the format: `username:hashed_password`.
- ✔️ All processing happens locally – your credentials never leave your device.
💡 Pro Tip: For new Apache setups (2.4+), always use bcrypt. For compatibility with older servers, use APR1-MD5. Never use plain text in production.
🔒 100% client‑side • Your credentials never uploaded • bcrypt/APR1/SHA1 • Zero tracking
