NGINX has announced
the preview release of the nginx-acme
module, which adds native support to NGINX for the Automatic
Certificate Management Environment (ACME) protocol:

NGINX’s native support for ACME brings a variety of benefits that
simplify and enhance the overall SSL/TLS certificate management
process. Being able to configure ACME directly using NGINX directives
drastically reduces manual errors and eliminates much of the ongoing
overhead traditionally associated with managing SSL/TLS
certificates. It also reduces reliance on external tools like Certbot,
creating a more secure and streamlined workflow with fewer
vulnerabilities and a smaller attack surface.
