In local development environments, self-signed certificates are usually used to enable HTTPS. However, self-signed certificates are marked as insecure by browsers by default because they are not issued by trusted certificate authorities (CA). mkcert solves this problem. It can generate certificates that are fully trusted locally, just like those issued by regular CAs. mkcert is an open-source tool for creating locally trusted development certificates. The Github address is: https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert. It has characteristics such as easy to use, cross-platform, secure and reliable.
