Sitecore JSS – Secure your Disconnected Mode

Hello here is another Sitecore JSS blog. In this blog, I will show you an easy way to secure your localhost with a certificate when developing Sitecore JSS applications in Disconnected Mode

I needed to run Sitecore JSS application on the localhost with https://

These few quick steps will get you going fast:

Step 1: Install mkcert

For MacOS

brew install mkcert

For Windows

choco install mkcert

Step 2: Generate Local Certs

$ mkcert -install
$ mkcert example.com "*.example.com" example.test localhost 127.0.0.1 ::1

Step 3: Change your localhost address and add an ‘s’ to the sitecoreApiHost url

Step 4: Start your app with this command

// for MacOS
HTTPS=true npm start
// for Windows
set HTTPS=true&&npm start

Happy Hacking!!!
