The language choice is crucial for a web server. Most servers (NGINX, Apache, HAProxy, etc.) and their dependencies are written in C, which are vulnerable to catastrophic memory safety bugs like Heartbleed. Go programs like Caddy are impervious to a whole class of security vulnerabilities.

The language choice is crucial for a web server. Language impacts development speed and ease, performance, testing, deployment complexity, ecosystem reliability, dependencies, tooling, error handling and reliability, and much, much more. Go offers strong advantages in all these areas, allowing for rapid development, robust production performance, and high scalability.

Automatic HTTPS

Our flagship feature. Caddy enables HTTPS by default, and automatically procures and renews certificates for all your sites.
|

</p>
|

<p>
|
||||
TODO: Some strong marketing text
|
||||
Fully-native, integrated auto-HTTPS is far superior to any solution that requires external tooling or cron jobs. Caddy's certificate maintenance is the best in the industry because it is more robust, reliable, and scalable than any other solution.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You can try deploying 100,000 sites with Certbot and a cron job—but if that doesn't fall over by itself, the web server will. Only Caddy is designed to massively scale TLS certificates both horizontally and vertically.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Never manually generate a CSR again. Never click a link in an email to download a certificate. Never (mis)configure your web server to use them. Never miss reminders to renew your certificates, one-by-one, every few months before they expire. You won't even have to think about certificates or TLS.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
It's truly automagic.

<h3 class="green">FastCGI transport</h3>
|

<p>
|

FastCGI is typically used to serve PHP applications via php-fpm. FastCGI responders may require additional information about the script being run such as script name, path relative to root, etc., and Caddy's FastCGI transport takes care of all of that and makes it configurable.
