Replit has announced that it is now an HTTPS-first platform, which means that all server repls on the platform are automatically secured with HTTPS by default. This brings additional security benefits to users and reduces the risk of data breaches. Replit's hosting infrastructure makes it easy for anyone to instantly have a secure server without having to lift a finger. The platform uses Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) protocol to request, store, serve, and renew certificates from Let's Encrypt, allowing users to prove control over their domains and issue certificates with minimal validation requirements. Replit also issues wildcard certificates that are valid for all servers hosted by a user, reducing the need for repeated certificate requests. With this milestone, Replit aims to make web hosting easy, simple, and fast, providing a seamless experience for developers and users alike.
