This is super interesting! Of course, it's still experimental: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/module-dict.html#Status https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/module-dict.html#Sta... "Experimental" status indicates that the module is available as part of the Apache kit, but you are on your own if you try to use it. The module is being documented for completeness, and is not necessarily supported. Nonetheless, it would certainly be something to make Apache competitive with the likes of Caddy and Nginx again, if they manage to implement the functionality in a resilient and easy to use manner to the end.

  Only though Certbot, as far as i know: https://certbot.eff.org/ https://certbot.eff.org/ That said, Nginx still blows most other web servers out of the water: it has excellent performance and the configuration file format is easier to grok than that of Apache2/httpd and can let you get more done in less time. Perhaps this is why it's often chosen as the default solution for implementing an ingress, e.g. in Kubernetes. And in my eyes that's a shame, since Apache2/httpd has served me faithfully for years and is a decent web server on its own, hence the addition of this new functionality has the potential to either make Nginx adopt it as well (which would be a net positive for everyone), or simply make more people consider Apache2/httpd for their deployments (which is good, because then its decline will be slower).
