 You dont need the nat gateway, you can achieve the same thing with security groups (block all incoming) (explained <https://www.reddit.com/r/aws/comments/75bjei/private_subnets_nats_vs_simply_only_allowing/>).

 An advantage to NAT is all outgoing requests to the internet come from a single IP.

+## Using certbot CLI to generate SSL
+
+### Wildcard certificate
+
+In a new virtualenv install certbot:
+
+```bash
+pip install certbot
+```
+
+Run the `certbot` command:
+
+```bash
+sudo certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges=dns --email dtomlinson@panaetius.co.uk --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --agree-tos -d "*.panaetius.co.uk"
+```
+
+Follow the instructions to add a `TXT` record to your DNS server for validation.
+
+When finished you should see:
+
+```markdown
+- Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:
+  /etc/letsencrypt/live/panaetius.co.uk/fullchain.pem
+  Your key file has been saved at:
+  /etc/letsencrypt/live/panaetius.co.uk/privkey.pem
+  Your cert will expire on 2020-08-01. To obtain a new or tweaked
+  version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot
+  again. To non-interactively renew _all_ of your certificates, run
+  "certbot renew"
+- Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
+  configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
+  secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
+  also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
+  making regular backups of this folder is ideal.
