Certbot is a Let's Encrypt command-line client automating setup of SSL/TLS certificates. Robie Basak from the Ubuntu Server team published a snap package of certbot making it even easier to install certbot dependencies. The certbot snap call for testing [1] shows just how easy it is. Happy hosting!
