Hi there,
If you’re hosting on App Platform, you don’t need to manually configure an SSL certificate, App Platform automatically provides and renews free TLS certificates through Let’s Encrypt.
If you’re setting this up on a Droplet instead, the steps you listed for Apache and OpenSSL look fine for a self-signed certificate. Just keep in mind that browsers will still show a warning since it’s not issued by a trusted CA.
