Build a tiny certificate authority for your homelab

• mkcert

  131 45,716 2.7 Go

  A simple zero-config tool to make locally trusted development certificates with any names you'd like.

Nice! In the past, I've tried to use Let's Encrypt with ESXi, but didn't see a clear and simple way with Let's Encrypt (and that itself might be overkill)... as I just needed it to admin my own servers, I decided to use https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert for that. I posted what I did in https://henvic.dev/posts/homelab/

• minica

  10 2,890 4.4 Go

  minica is a small, simple CA intended for use in situations where the CA operator also operates each host where a certificate will be used.

https://github.com/jsha/minica has been around longer and has met all my home lab needs so far. It's even plugged on LetsEncrypt-- https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost.
