When using CoreDNS to serve DNS traffic over TLS/HTTPS certificates have to be managed (created and renewed) manually. The goal of my project is to automate this task, using the ACME protocol. If successful, CoreDNS can be hosted on a domain, such as dns.example.com, and automatically obtain a valid certificate (for example from Let's Encrypt) and it will also automatically be renewed before it expires, reducing toil for CoreDNS operators.
