 # LetsEncrypt Express
 
-Free SSL and Automatic HTTPS for node.js with Express, Connect, and other middleware systems
+Free SSL and Automatic HTTPS for node.js with Express, Connect, and other middleware systems.
+
+## How Automatic?
+
+**Extremely**.
+
+* **renewals** are *fully automatic* and happen in the *background*, with **no downtime**
+* **registrations** are automatic in *testing*, but require a **approval callback** in *production*
+
+**testing mode**
+
+All you have to do is start the webserver and then visit it at it's domain name.
+The certificate will be retrieved automatically. Renewals and Registrations are automatic.
+
+**production mode**
+
+You can run **registration** manually:
+
+```bash
+npm install -g letsencrypt-cli
+
+letsencrypt certonly --standalone --agree-tos --domains example.com --email user@example.com
+```
+
+(note that the `--webrootPath` option is also available if you don't want to shut down your webserver to get the cert)
+
+Or you can approve registrations with the `opts.approveRegistration(domain, cb)`callback:
+
+```javascript
+{ configDir: '...'
+// ...
+, approveRegistration: function (hostname, cb) {
+    // check a database or something, get the user
+    // show them the agreement that you've already downloaded
+    cb(null, {
+      domains: [hostname]
+    , email: 'user@example.com'
+    , agreeTos: true
+    });
+  }
+}
+```
+
+In  you would need to provide a handler 
+to approve a registration (otherwise an attacker could send bad SNI packets and cause you to be
+rate-limited on the ACME server).
+
+In **production** I recommend running the commandline client with the same directory as the webserver.
+After the **one time** setup, it will renew automatically.
