Setting up SSL and DNS for localhost on Node.js?

Question

Domain Name System

Previously worked on front-end. I wrote a project on Node.js, but on http, I want to set it up on localhost https before putting it into operation.
To generate a certificate by ubuntu, you need a domain name.
How to set localhost domain and configure dns for Node.js? Because I don't use Nginx and nothing comes to mind.

Answer 1

Take any domain name and enter it in /etc/hosts or windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 mycompany.com
and that's it, generate a certificate for mycompany.com. It will only work on your computer. True, if your computer has a white IP address, then you can also register xxxx mycompany.com, and everyone who registers this at home will go to you.
