Access macOS localhost from IE or Edge within Parallels Desktop

This issue is so infuriating that I'm going to take some time to write about it.

  1. MOST IMPORTANT. Your local development server must be bound to IP address 0.0.0.0.

  2. My Parallels setting is using Shared Network, nothing special there.

  3. Open macOS Terminal and type ifconfig. Look for the value under bridge100 > inet. It is typically 10.211.55.2.
