Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure(HTTPS) is the secure version ofHTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the website that you are connected to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between your browser and the website are encrypted.

you'll need a SSL certificate to use https. there are free certificates you can get from Let's encrypt.

https/ssl won't secure the source code. it secures the communication between client and server in order to prevent for example man in the middle attacks.
