Docker with SSL and an nginx reverse proxy

Running your ASP.NET Core (or other) application in Docker using SSL should not be an overwhelming task. These steps should do the trick.

Run the following steps from a Linux terminal (I used WSL or WSL2 on Windows from the Windows Terminal).

1. Create a `conf` file with information about the cert you'll be creating

It should look something like the content below; call it my-site.conf or something like that.

Windows Terminal Notes

Installing

Chocolatey: choco install microsoft-windows-terminal
Windows Store: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/windows-terminal/9n0dx20hk701?activetab=pivot:overviewtab

TIP: Pin the Terminal to your Taskbar for quick and easy access

2. Create a Sample User Account that can Access the Dashboard via Token

Hugo is a great platform for static website creation based on Markdown (or HTML) files.

Getting Started

First, install Hugo:

Mac: brew install hugo
Windows: choco install hugo -confirm More info: https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/

Creating a site

Just run the following command (a directory called quickstart will be created holding your site - replace the name with whatever you want):

Central Code within a Library or other location

You can create the following code in some central library or folder if desired:

public static IApplicationBuilder UseCustomSerilogRequestLogging(this IApplicationBuilder app, bool includeHealthChecks = false)
{
    return app.UseSerilogRequestLogging(options =>
    {
        if (!includeHealthChecks)

VS Code Notes

The following are some notes regarding my setup within VS Code for anyone that is curious.

Settings

Font: Cascadia Code (with ligatures)
Theme: Dracula -- see Extensions below
Workbench->Tree:Indent: 20. I like a little more indentation than is default -- it's easier to see diferrent levels / folders
Files->Exclude: I omit certain things from the VS Code Explorer to make focusing on the code easier:

 **/.git

	class Program
	{
	static void Main(string[] args)
	{
	Console.WriteLine($"Started consumer, Ctrl-C to stop consuming");

	var cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
	Console.CancelKeyPress += (_, e) => {
	e.Cancel = true; // prevent the process from terminating.
	cts.Cancel();
