Certbot

About Certbot

Certbot is a free, open source software tool for automatically using Let’s Encrypt certificates on manually-administrated websites to enable HTTPS. Use our instruction generator to find custom commands to get Certbot on your server's environment. Pick your server's software and system above. Certbot will fetch Let’s Encrypt certificates that will be standard Domain Validation certificates, so you can use them for any server that uses a domain name, like web servers. You can also use these certificates for other TLS applications such as IMAPS. A command line is a way of interacting with a computer by typing text-based commands to it and receiving text-based replies. Certbot is run from a command-line interface, usually on a Unix-like server. In order to use Certbot for most purposes, you’ll need to be able to install and run it on the command line of your web server, which is usually accessed over SSH.
