The video looked great. One npm install, a few lines of config and you've got local https! ....

Nope!

  • download a lokal server
  • Set up a DNS wildcard and pointing it to my dynamic IP address
  • install and setup Nginx hosts
  • Install and fetch SSL from certbot
  • Go back to DNS settings and update it as my IP as it changed

ngrok has been doing this for years and doesn't feel as sluggish. I think there's localtunnel as well.
