You can use a simple text file, or in case there sre more data to store a jason file. If you are looking to store a lot of data, sqlite is s good choice. In any of this cases the data in files are not encrypted!!! Using text files: https://code.sololearn.com/cESZeFlM1cRR/?ref=app Using jason: https://code.sololearn.com/c6i2Xq4DJvx5/?ref=app

Raw passwords of users should never be stored in files or databases. They should be encrypted or hashed before you save them. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.howtogeek.com/434930/why-are-companies-still-storing-passwords-in-plain-text/amp/
