What is the hash of password?

Password hashing is defined as putting a password through a hashing algorithm (bcrypt, SHA, etc) to turn plaintext into an unintelligible series of numbers and letters. This is important for basic security hygiene because, in the event of a security breach, any compromised passwords are unintelligible to the bad actor.

Do you hash password on frontend or backend?

And the hash step is always done on the backend, since doing it on client-side would allow an attacker which got access to your hashes a method to login on every account.

Is SHA-256 good for password hashing?

Choosing a slow algorithm is actually preferred for password hashing. Of the hashing schemes provided, only PBKDF2 and Bcrypt are designed to be slow which makes them the best choice for password hashing, MD5 and SHA-256 were designed to be fast and as such this makes them a less than ideal choice.
