Password Protecting Static Site Content with WASM

"I use static site generators for my sites. I call out to external APIs to do anything dynamic. The exception is password protection. I'd always thought that needed to be done dynamically on a site's host server. I realized with WASM that's not the case. Files can be encrypted and served statically with a WASM process providing decryption directly on the front end."
