LabCA is a private CA (Certificate Authority) for use inside an organization, i.e. for creating HTTPS/SSL certificates for machines that cannot be reached via the open internet. It is based on Let's Encrypt™ code for ACMEv2 (Automated Certificate Management Environment) so all modern LE clients should work.
LabCA should NOT be used on the open internet, please use the official Let's Encrypt™ instance for that.

To trust the certificates provided by LabCA, all your client devices should install the root certificate (.pem format) in their Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.
