## What it is
Mozilla's Server Side TLS repository, which historically hosted the wiki source for Mozilla's TLS configuration guidelines and the SSL/TLS configuration generator. The content has since moved to the community-run TLSRef project (docs.tlsref.org and tlsref/configurator), leaving this repo as a pointer.

## Use cases
- find recommended TLS configurations for a web server
- generate nginx or apache SSL config
- look up cipher suite name mappings between OpenSSL and NSS
- choose Modern vs Intermediate TLS compatibility profile
- configure HSTS securely

## When to choose
- you need the historical Mozilla Server Side TLS guidelines or the pre-move generator code
- you want to trace where the guidelines and configurator moved to

## When to avoid
- you need current TLS guidelines or a working configuration generator - use tlsref/docs and tlsref/configurator instead
- you want actively maintained tooling in this repository

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, documentation
- domain: security, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: self-hosted
- tags: tls, ssl, cipher-suites, configuration-guidelines, hsts, archived, web-server
