Hello world example
===================

To try this example, you need GNU `make`, `git` and
[relx](https://github.com/erlware/relx) in your PATH.

To build the example, run the following command:

``` bash
$ make
```

To start the release in the foreground:

``` bash
$ ./_rel/bin/ssl_hello_world_example console
```

Then point your browser at [http://localhost:8443](http://localhost:8443).
You will need to temporarily trust the root certificate authority,
which can also be found in `priv/ssl/cowboy-ca.crt`.

$ curl --cacert priv/ssl/cowboy-ca.crt -i https://localhost:8443
