By default, this playbook retrieves and auto-renews free SSL certificates from [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/).
Those certificates are used when configuring the nginx reverse proxy installed by this playbook.
If that's alright, you can skip this.

## Not bothering with SSL certificates
If you're [using an external web server](configuring-playbook-own-webserver.md) which is not nginx, or you would otherwise want to manage its certificates without this playbook getting in the way, you can completely disable SSL certificate management with the following configuration:
```yaml
matrix_ssl_retrieval_method: none
```
With such a configuration, no certificates will be retrieved at all. You're free to manage them however you want.
