Dehydrated: Letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script

I am once again asking that "web" and "fullstack" developers...
My favorite method of obtaining certificates is with lets encrypt and LEGO

Where do you get/setup certificates from for your https/ssl?
Caddy where possible, and acme.sh or lego where not.
- Anyone using WireGuard with a domain name? Any ideas to lower the bills?
- Acme.sh runs arbitrary commands from a remote server
-
How do you renew SSL certificates?
Depend on host's capability... - lego - dehydrated - caddy - in case it already works as a web server, it will automatically issue and renew certs
- Automating LE renewals with dns-01?
-
LeGo CertHub v0.9.0 with Docker Support
u/gregtwallace maybe in the short term until you write your own, you could provide a hook into one of the many ACME client implementations which do DNS-01 and support the majority of major DNS provider APIs out of the box? That would make your (really great!) project much more widely usable.

Current bcrypt is problematic I find. Made changes to core functionality. Looking for feedback

SHA-3 Buffer Overflow
The version in the Golang stdlib is a pure-go implementation, but there's an assembler variant optimized for amd64 (https://github.com/golang/crypto/blob/master/sha3/keccakf_am...), which is apparently derived from the XKCP package.
Bad news for the (mostly-Golang) Ethereum ecosystem...

Hashing password
In last section we have created users table in our database, but we are currently storing user's password in plain text. This is something we should never do, and instead we need to store hashed password with random salt. For that we will use golang/crypto library. First we need to expand our User structure:

SIEC elliptic curve vs other better known ones ?
So in conclusion, croc seems to be pretty secure as long as you use P-256 (or P-384). Internally, the standard golang.org/x/crypto library is used, which I can guarantee is very secure, as it is used in millions of web servers around the world, and Go is a language maintained by Google, which has many security professionals at their disposal. Ultimately, the decision is yours. While I can give you my opinion and point you to correct documents, you should trust nobody other than yourself. Not even me. But still, I recommend P-256 above everything else.

Crowdsourcing for healthcare tool accepting DOGE as payment feedback
I've been considering developing suck tools with Golang. Golang's crypto package golang crypto might be a great starting point if your familiar with language.

acme.sh - A pure Unix shell script implementing ACME client protocol
Themis - Easy to use cryptographic framework for data protection: secure messaging with forward secrecy and secure data storage. Has unified APIs across 14 platforms.
acme-dns - Limited DNS server with RESTful HTTP API to handle ACME DNS challenges easily and securely.
simple-scrypt - A convenience library for generating, comparing and inspecting password hashes using the scrypt KDF in Go 🔑
acmetool - :lock: acmetool, an automatic certificate acquisition tool for ACME (Let's Encrypt)
ACL - A simple but powerful Access Control List manager
