Research direction

The issue names Certbot and AWS Lambda but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the repository's existing package-building conventions and the AWS Lambda compatibility constraints described in the issue. Done would mean a documented, working Certbot package for Lambda.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I would like to contribute to this repo by building certbot for AWS lambda.

Am I correct in assuming that I would have to spin up a AWS linux EC2 instance, and then build certbot in a statically linked manner? How would one do this? I would like to give it a try after being brought into the right direction.
