Installed certificate, but https site not working

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: www.childrenscodingclub.com

I ran this command:sudo certbot --nginx

It produced this output:
Requesting a certificate for childrenscodingclub.com and www.childrenscodingclub.com

Successfully received certificate.
Certificate is saved at: /etc/letsencrypt/live/childrenscodingclub.com/fullchain.pem

This certificate expires on 2022-04-09.
These files will be updated when the certificate renews.

All looks good. Check your AWS Security Group to ensure you allow traffic for port 443

Thanks! This solved it, and I can see the site at https://childrenscodingclub.com

Newbie to implementing https, so looks like I now have to change requests going from my Angular application to https, and unsure yet if socket.io requests served through my node server will continue to work or not. Will do some research and make headway.
