Probably not a good idea to do SSL in server

Noticed that you have

SSL support in server

I don't think it's a good idea do SSL support in a web application because production web applications are deployed behind a reverse proxy that is optimized for SSL termination, such as Nginx.

You also want to:

Do one, simple thing well. There are several similar projects out there that do more than this project attempts to do.

therefore, I propose striking SSL termination out of the TODO section

Hi,

The README also says:

Minimize external dependencies. If something is simple and straightforward to do ourselves, don't use a third-party package just for the sake of using a third-party package.

SSL is easy to do, and Coal Mine is a trivial enough application that it by no means needs to be run behind a reverse proxy to support SSL. Therefore, adding SSL support to the application is a good idea which I hope to eventually have time to implement (or I hope someone else does it and submits a PR!).
