_Cette page est disponible [en français](https://static.cinay.xyz/2019/08/RaspAP-support-HTTPS-pour-un-serveur-local.html)._
**Update:** this process is now [automated by the Quick Installer](https://github.com/billz/raspap-webgui/wiki/SSL-certificates-(Quick-Installer)).
### Preamble
HTTPS prevents network attackers from observing or injecting page contents. Clearly, this is a _good thing_ for RaspAP — given its function for creating and managing wireless networks. But HTTPS needs TLS certificates, and while deploying public websites is largely a [solved issue thanks to the ACME protocol and Let's Encrypt](https://www.leebutterman.com/2019/08/05/analyzing-hundreds-of-millions-of-ssl-connections.html), local web servers still mostly use HTTP because no one can get a universally valid certificate for localhost.
