How to Setup HTTPS Locally with create-react-app

Running HTTPS in development is helpful when you need to consume an API that is also serving requests via HTTPS.

In this article, we will be setting up HTTPS in development for our create-react-app with our own SSL certificate.

At this stage, you're already set to go with https. But you don't have a valid certificate, so your connection is assumed to be insecure.

mkcert -install After running the above commands, you'll have created a certificate authority on your machine which enables you to generate certificates for all of your future projects.

mkcert -key-file ./.cert/key.pem -cert-file ./.cert/cert.pem "localhost" We'll be storing our generated certificates in the .cert directory. These should not be committed to version control, so you should update your .gitignore to include the .cert directory.

"start": "HTTPS=true SSL_CRT_FILE=./.cert/cert.pem SSL_KEY_FILE=./.cert/key.pem react-scripts start",
