• Upcoming Changes to Let's Encrypt Certificates

  Haven’t tried it myself, but this one looks interesting: https://certifytheweb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• We just hit $1M ARR in 4 years. With zero funding

  Always encouraging to see that ideas can work out. I'm not quite managing the "let's build a team" aspect just yet but otherwise similar journey and outcome over a (slightly) longer period. I just wanted to not deal with certificates, now I deal with certificates all day every day lol: https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• TLS Certificate Lifetimes Will Officially Reduce to 47 Days

  Pretty sure this only refers to publicly trusted certs. What percentage of public certs are still being manually managed? I've been in the cert automation industry for 8 years (https://certifytheweb.com) and I do still hear of manual work going on, but the majority of stuff can be automated. For stuff that genuinely cannot be automated (are you sure you're sure) these become monthly maintenance tasks,... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• SSL certificate lifetimes are going down. Dates proposed. 45 days by 2027

  This is largely a solved problem. On Windows https://certifytheweb.com has provided automated certificate management for the best part of a decade and we're now branching out into large scale cross-platform tools, for those interested. I was surprised by a customer yesterday who was looking to migrate thousands of manually renewed 1 year certs, I had no idea people were still using 1 yr certs to such a... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Running One-man SaaS for 9 Years

  Thanks :) - yes 90% of users are using the free version. It's a desktop app you install on servers. The API elements it does have are a combination of cloudflare workers, a windows server (for customer portal), linux for community discourse. Peak API use so far is 350M requests per month (was about $46 on cloudflare) but have managed to curtail that a bit. https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

GitHub Copilot mentions (387)

• I almost credited llms.txt for a Google AI Mode win. Then I read what Google actually says.

  Where llms.txt genuinely gets read is a different layer: coding and agent tooling — Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf — pulling a documentation site's pages with less token waste, plus emerging agent protocols like OpenAI's Agents SDK. That's real, and it's growing fast. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

• GitHub Copilot for Engineers: Getting Better Results

  You need an active GitHub Copilot subscription. Plans are available at individual, business, and enterprise tiers at github.com/features/copilot. Once active, all tools use your GitHub account credentials. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Agentic: Which App/Harness Is Best for Angular Development?

  For over a decade PhpStorm (starting in my WordPress era) and later WebStorm have been my main IDEs for web development. So when GitHub Copilot launched, it was a natural choice to try it out in WebStorm. It was one of the first AI coding tools I used, and it had a big impact on how I thought about AI-assisted coding. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Your Design System Needs An MCP Server

  Before we get into it, there are some things about AI usage worth addressing. I've had my fair share of scepticism in the past, but recent model releases have made it increasingly difficult to argue that AI isn't a viable tool for the majority of workstreams, including building user interfaces. Most large language models are trained on public data scraped from the internet, which means your internal design system... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Custom Copilot Agents: Building Domain-Expert AI Teammates with Skills, MCP Tools, and Custom Knowledge

  Most developers still treat GitHub Copilot like a very good autocomplete engine. That's useful, but it's not the real unlock. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
