Learning quick setup of an HTTPS server

Just one of the things I'm learning. https://github.com/hchiam/learning

Usage

(Mac only:)

bash localhost-ssl-mac.sh

Then you run https-server (note the "s") in the folder of your choice. (If you see the "command not found" message, then try running source ~/.bash_profile and then try https-server again.)

For example:

cd example-folder
https-server
# then open https://localhost:8080

Since you created the self-signed certificate, you should be able to trust your own localhost site.
