Python Flask Tutorial: How to enable HTTPS with a free SSL/TLS Certificate using Let's Encrypt

In this Python Flask Tutorial, we will be learning how to enable HTTPS on our web server with a free SSL/TLS certificate using a service called "Let's Encrypt". Let’s Encrypt is a Certificate Authority that lets anyone obtain, renew, and manage certificates for their site. They're a non-profit and provide all of this for free, and it's easy to get running on our server, so let's go ahead and get started...

I really enjoyed these series, thanks so much Corey. Everything was clearly explained, and the CLI examples are great to understand what's going on in the background. Great job!
I would like to see how a category hierarchical system and a tagging system is built. These goes hand by hand with a search function

Hello Corey!
This series is absolutely amazing, it's exactly what I was looking for - a real world project code-along where I can learn how programming is actually done.

That being said, I really hope thay one day you'll make a tutorial on how you'd containerize this and maybe even make a few microservices.

[anthonypark]

amazing job Corey! It helped me publish my first website to the world. I really appreciate what you did on Youtube. Best teacher ever!

[rushas]

Thanks for the tutorials. This probably took you huge amount of time and effort to both learn and prepare. So thank you for your time and effort and for doing it for free. I was wondering if flask tutorials will continue? Because in 15.54 things you said, I'm really looking forward to see those aswell.
