Hey everyone,

Just a quick question, let’s encrypt, what is it and how can I take advantage of its services?

For a bit of background I’m trying to setup KanIDM and the need for a ca certificate is needed, I was told to use let’s encrypt to create it.

Just looking for knowledge.

Thanks!

    As someone that used Nginx for close to decade, Caddy is about 10x simpler with the same features. It takes a bit to wrap your head around if you’re used to coming from an “old-school” webserver and proxy like Apache or Nginx though. One of the greatest things about Caddy is that it does SSL by default, so there’s no need to have stanzas in each section saying “listen on 80 and 443, but if you get a connection on 80 redirect it to 443” and another one saying “enable SSL for this (sub)domain”. Creating a reverse proxy in Caddy literally takes three lines and consists of FQDN { reverse_proxy internal-endpoint-name:portNumber }
