Just want simple TLS for your .internal network?
How does this compare with smallstep step-ca certificates?

Special-Use Domain 'Home.arpa.'
I've been doing this for a while with SmallStep CA: https://github.com/smallstep/certificates
It's a bit of a pain to load a cert onto every device (easier with stuff like Ansible if you have a bunch of linux devices), but manageable. And it lets me do proper trusted TLS for a lot of stuff that would otherwise be self-signed.
One thing I recommend is to add X509v3 Name Constraints extensions to your root CA if you go down this path. It prevents the CA from being abused to MITM you for other URLS (at least for browsers/clients that respect names constraints)

You shouldn't run NSA-grade Wi-Fi at home
You can roll your own with https://github.com/smallstep/certificates. We maintain major open source projects and contribute a lot to other projects. I don’t think that means everything we do has to be open source. Sorry this one wasn’t. Doing this in pure open source would be a book, not a blog post.
Love Let’s Encrypt — we’re sponsors — but using them for WiFi is a terrible idea. You need internal PKI for WiFi.

Distributing ACME Let'sEncrypt certs for homelab
letsencrypt was always about moving the public internet off of http, it doesn't really make sense to use it throughout your internal network. but if you really want TLS and ACME for auto renewal, other solutions are available: https://github.com/smallstep/certificates

SSH With SSO
You could try step-ca: https://github.com/smallstep/certificates. There’s an OIDC provisioner for SSO and you can sign (short-lived) SSH certificates with it.

Web application to manage self-signed certificate authorities/certificates/keys
You could also check out out Step CA: https://github.com/smallstep/certificates and the accompanying CLI. It has an ACME server and other methods for requesting certificates. It can work/integrate with your existing root(s), too.

ACME setup. Domain required?
This is a lot more complicated setup but it works for me. I run a private CA called step-ca from smallstep and it provides CA and ACME endpoint. I use a .home domain. The trick is the validation for non-http devices which is typically the DNS-01 challenge. For this, I have unbound in pfsense setup to work with acme-dns so I can keep everything internal. Again its complicated but if your learning cyber security it might help get a handle on all things TLS. Btw way behind the scenes I think the ACME plugin is really just running acme.sh bash script which is really good. Final reminder as other have stated. Private CA is great but you need to distro the roots and intermediates out to your clients for trust. If all your trying to do is have an https web gui for pfsense from one device its pretty easy.
