Not the author, but since it hasn't been mentioned here, wanted to give a shout out to the SSLTrack project 🚀

It's a simple Docker container that can check multiple SSL certs on a customizable interval, and optionally send out SMTP notifications for upcoming expirations. I found a few minor issues but so far it's working great.

Even in the age of automated cert renewal, things can and do go wrong so this is a good belt and suspenders thing to bolt on.

edit: Just want to mention that I am aware (and a longtime user) of UptimeKuma - but this is a little more purpose built for cert monitoring which is why I wanted to mention it.
