I have an remix app (express) setup to use mutual TLS. Can the app platform support mTLS? Trying to think of a way to get access to the SSL certs in order to setup the express https server.

Hey there,
I believe that the DigitalOcean App Platform does not natively support MmTLS directly as mTLS usually requires presenting a client certificate for incoming connections, and this would require the load balancer or ingress controller to have this capability.
In the case of DigitalOcean’s App Platform, the load balancing and routing are abstracted away and managed by DigitalOcean, limiting your control over these components.
For applications that require mTLS, you may need to consider a more flexible hosting environment, such as running your own Kubernetes cluster or using Droplets directly, where you have full control over the networking and can configure mTLS at the load balancer or application level.
The best thing to do to get your voice heard regarding this would be to head over to our Product Ideas board and post a new idea, including as much information as possible for what you’d like to see implemented.
Hope that helps!
