want it for a static site, no access to the backend. I dont want to run a full blown website, just want access control. possible?

  Sure, if your web hoster allows .htaccess files (most do). You just put that file next to your HTML files.

    Have you ever hosted something github pages or netlify? Those are the situations I'm talking about, where an htaccess or any server side access control wouldn't work.

      No, I haven't. But since you did not tell anyone about that requirement, how was I to guess it?

        You're right. I assumed mentioning static site with Hugo or Jekyll was enough. To clarify, it would be a static site with hosting on something like netlify or github or gitlab pages, where you don't have access to the server.
