caddyserver/caddy
Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS
What it does
Caddy is a web server that automatically handles the complex security setup (like obtaining and renewing the certificates that enable the padlock icon in browsers) so teams can serve websites and apps securely without manual configuration. It acts as a smart traffic director that sits between your users and your product, handling requests reliably across all modern web protocols.
Why it matters for PMs
With 70,000+ stars and nearly 350 contributors, Caddy is a widely trusted piece of infrastructure that reduces the operational burden of keeping web products secure and online, which directly lowers engineering costs and reduces the risk of security lapses. For founders and PMs, choosing a mature, automated server solution like this means faster shipping and fewer outages tied to certificate or configuration errors.
