Building web-based SaaS with Go as a solo entrepreneur. What should I be aware of?
For deployment, you may not need a reverse proxy with Nginx or the likes. Certmagic will make HTTPS a breeze. Also makes it possible to handle multi-tenant SaaS domains SSL provisioning. While not the easiest, it was much easier than trying to do it at the reverse proxy and cheaper than doing it with Cloudflare's SaaS service.

Show HN: Caddy v2.5.0
Because Lego maintainers wouldn't budge when Caddy needed changes made to increase ACME reliability. Matt wrote his own implementation https://github.com/mholt/acmez and started using that in Caddy soon after. There's a deeper explanation here: https://github.com/caddyserver/certmagic/issues/71

Do you handle TLS/HTTPS termination in go code, or relly on another service (NGINX, Load Balancer, F5, Heroku, PaaS, etc)?
I terminate SSL in GO (less moving parts to manage), and use https://github.com/caddyserver/certmagic to provision and renew my certs.
