# Generating a key & certificate
Run
By default, kochab enables the `certgen` feature, which will automatically generate a certificate for you. All you need to do is run the program once and follow the prompts printed to stdout. You can override this behavior by disabling the feature, or by using the methods in the `Builder`.
If you want to generate a certificate manually, you can use the command:
```sh
mkdir cert && cd cert
openssl req -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 365
```
and enter your domain name (e.g. "localhost" for testing) as Common Name (CN).
Alternatively, if you want to include multiple domains add something like `-addext "subjectAltName = DNS:localhost, DNS:example.org"`.
