How do I set up SSL for my Go web server?

To set up SSL for your Go web server, you'll need to obtain an SSL certificate and then configure your server to use it.

Where can I get an SSL certificate?

You can get an SSL certificate from providers like Let's Encrypt, DigiCert, or Comodo. Let's Encrypt is free and widely used.

How do I configure my Go server to use the SSL certificate?

You can use the http.ListenAndServeTLS function in your Go code, specifying the paths to your certificate and key files.

Can you show me an example code snippet?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "net/http"
)

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        w.Write([]byte("Hello, SSL!"))
    })
    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServeTLS(":443", "path/to/cert.pem", "path/to/key.pem", nil))
}
