Serving pages via HTTPS, SSL setup

The service is designed to be deployed as an Azure Web App, reusing the SSL encryption provided by the platform, to expose, for example, private services hosted in Azure VMs, Cloud Apps, etc.

However, you can easily extend the code to use a custom certificate, editing Program.cs and using something like:

var host = new WebHostBuilder()
    .UseKestrel(options =>
    {
        options.UseHttps("my-cert.pfx", "my-cert-password");
    })
    .UseUrls("https://*:" + config.Port)
    .UseContentRoot(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
    .UseIISIntegration()
    .UseStartup<Startup>()
    .Build();

See the Kestrel documentation for more information about this setup and other options.
