This commit implements a basic static HTML page that uses Bootstrap 4 for layout and node-forge to generate a RSA key pair and a certificate signing request. The subject of the CSR and the key size can be chosen by the user. The implementation uses gulp to collect static assets and to allow bootstrap customization. |
