    Showcert is OpenSSL for humans, much simpler to use and it has gencert utility to generate certificates. Very easy.
  • showcert: simple OpenSSL for humans
    1 project | /r/Python | 12 Sep 2023
    showcert is simple CLI tool which does tiny fraction of what OpenSSL can do, but this fraction is 9/10 of what typical sysadmin/programmer needs from OpenSSL. If openssl is swiss army knife (you can repair spaceship with it), showcert is simple knife with beer bottle opener. It's much easier to use, syntax is intuitive and hard to forget (how to check reddit SSL cert with openssl? measure time to find sequence of commands for this and run it).

    showcert is simple CLI tool with clean output to show/verify local (.pem) and remote SSL certificates with simple and intuitive syntax.
