+# Fly me a rocket
+
+This is a basic rocket web app. It uses tls to serve content, signing itself
+with keys that are in `private`, along with a generation script. A tryout use
+case would bring :
+
+    ( cd private && bash gen_cert.sh )
+    cargo run
+
+One should use Let'sEncrypt keys for a specific domain. See `Rocket.toml` for
+adding specific keys for production binaries. Self-generated keys are useful for
+developement environments.
