How to implement certificate based access to self hosted services? - eviltoast

I am hosting few services for my friends and family on my server. Due to devices limitations, I can’t install VPN on TVs etc. Is it possible to restrict the access to only those users that have a certificate issued by me?

    Are you able to open it to the internet and put these services behind an auth proxy? that might be the way to do it. Or if it already has login you might be able to put it behind a cloudflare WAF or similar and restrict bots and bad actors.

      It already has authentication. The problem with cloudflare WAF is that my application is streaming videos, that is against the Cloudflare’s ToS.
