For most of my internal services that are sitting behind Traefik I use step-ca which basically gives you a Let's Encrypt style certificate while working over the local network. The root CA has a long expiry (so might not be what you want if your goal Is a short lived root CA) but the actual certificates for each service are short lived (a touch over 24 hours from memory?)
I tried step-ca to start with, but my primary use case was for certs in the cluster, which cert-manager is more suited for natively. Maybe step-ca has improved, I was using it in the early days. My goal isn't a short lived cert as much as it is to have an easy configuration and to learn.
