Protecting static folder on server side
It should, but sadly not for me so far. 🤷‍♂️ But will check out the Nitro docs- thanks for the pointer!

Protecting static folder on server side
Just for future reference, the use case I described is trivial with express: 
import express from 'express';
const app = express();
/ Protect the protected folder
app.use('/protected', (req, res, next) => {
  if (req.session.authenticated) {
    // Serve files from the protected folder
    next();
  } else {
    // Deny access or redirect to login page
    res.status(403).send('Access denied');
  }
});

// Serve files from the protected folder
app.use('/protected', express.static(path.join(path.resolve(), 'dist')));
import express from 'express';
const app = express();
/ Protect the protected folder
app.use('/protected', (req, res, next) => {
  if (req.session.authenticated) {
    // Serve files from the protected folder
    next();
  } else {
    // Deny access or redirect to login page
    res.status(403).send('Access denied');
  }
});

// Serve files from the protected folder
app.use('/protected', express.static(path.join(path.resolve(), 'dist')));

Protecting static folder on server side
it's an internal dashboard built with Observable that I only want to show to logged in users. Observable framework has their own cli to build those static HTML files and assets. I'll check into Nitro, but I suspect it will be tricky to serve that folder. only to logged in users. Many thanks for responding!
