The password template renders the password page, which is a landing page that's shown when password protection is applied to a store. This page includes a message that is editable by merchants, and the password form for customers to gain access to the store.
The password template is located in the templates directory of the theme:

If you're working on a development store, then you can't show a custom password page on the store. A development store-specific password page is always displayed.
Although the customizable password page isn't used to control access to your development store, you can still view it after you log in, or edit it from the Shopify admin.
To view the customizable password page, logged-in visitors can navigate to https://your-store-name.myshopify.com/password, where your-store-name is the name of the development store.
