How to use .htpasswd Generator

Enter a username and password, choose bcrypt or SHA-1, and the tool computes a real password hash formatted as an .htpasswd entry for Apache or nginx basic auth.

Frequently asked questions

Is the password hash computed for real, or just a template?

It's a real hash — bcrypt or SHA-1 is computed from the password you enter in your browser, so the .htpasswd line is ready to use immediately.

Can I use this file directly on my live site?

Yes, as a starting point — double-check paths, URLs, and directives against your actual domain before deploying.

Does this tool call any external API to generate the file?

No. Everything is built client-side in your browser from the values you enter.
