Title: Seeking Guidance on How to Create a Self-Signed Certificate forLocal Development
Post by: jhonsonpape3 on August 14, 2025, 10:51:15
Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on a local development project and need to set up HTTPS for secure communication. Since this is for internal use only, I plan to create a self-signed certificate. However, I'm unsure about the best approach and would appreciate some guidance.

Specifically, I'm looking for advice on:

The most straightforward method to generate a self-signed certificate (https://docs.enclave.sidechannel.com/certificate-management.html).

Any potential pitfalls or common mistakes to avoid during the creation process.

How to configure my development environment (e.g., web server settings) to use the self-signed certificate.

Ensuring that the certificate is trusted by my local machine to prevent browser warnings.

If anyone has experience with this or can point me to a reliable tutorial, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
