You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least contain the root `toctree` directive. Certitude: Platform-Specific TLS Certificate Verification ========================================================= Certitude provides Python bindings to the Windows and OS X system-native TLS certificate libraries. This allows Python programs to validate TLS certificates using the exact same logic used by native browsers on those platforms (e.g. Safari and Internet Explorer/Edge). This means that by combining Certitude with the OpenSSL used by default on most Linuxes and BSDs, it is possible for a Python program to perform certificate validation in a platform-native manner on all major operating systems. This lets a Python program behave like a full native citizen of whatever platform it is installed on. This documentation discusses how to use Certitude.
