title: Securing Local Dev Server
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes you want to interact with a local webserver with https support because of some browser APIs that are only available in an https environment.
|
||||
|
||||
You can easily create a self-signed TLS cert for development purposes with [`mkcert`](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert).
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
brew install mkcert
|
||||
mkcert -install # Install the local CA in the OS keychain
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After installing `mkcert` and generating system-wide local CA cert, you can create a certificate for each project.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd awesome-website
|
||||
mkcert localhost # this will generate ./localhost.pem and ./localhost-key.pem
|
||||
npm install -g serve
|
||||
serve --ssl-cert ./localhost.pem --ssl-key ./localhost-key.pem
|
||||
```
