The frontend is routed from :3030 to :80 (http) now we need to also forward it to :443 (https) for this we need a free SSL certificate generator validated by certificate authority

Need of this feature:-

Secured connection to web application
Adding it to iframe and properly host to itch.io and other services
Many other benefits which a secure service provides.

Hello. What do u think about using Cloudflare? It is offer you free ssl and many more protections. Then what about configure nginx and create subdomain for your backend?

Thanks for the suggestion. Currently it uses AWS route53 for DNS with godaddy domain. I am looking into letsencrypt option https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40761309/adding-ssl-to-domain-hosted-on-route-53-aws

Cloudflare I am not sure what effort it will take to change DNS management as well
