## Using Let's Encrypt
[Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) is a Certificate Authority that allows you to automatically request and renew SSL/TLS certificates. In addition to starting Gitea on your configured port, to request HTTPS certificates Gitea will also need to listed on port 80, and will set up an autoredirect to HTTPS for you. Let's Encrypt will need to be able to access Gitea via the Internet to verify your ownership of the domain.
