1. Add local domain to /etc/hosts:

   127.0.0.1 my-project.dev

2. Install mkcert

3. Create certificate for this domain:

   ➜ mkcert my-project.dev
   
   Created a new certificate valid for the following names 📜
   - "my-project.dev"
   
   The certificate is at "./my-project.dev.pem" and the key at "./my-project.dev-key.pem" ✅

4. Add HTTPS options to Webpack Dev Server config:

   devServer: {
      host: 'my-project.dev',
      https: {
          key: './my-project.dev-key.pem',
          cert: './my-project.dev.pem',
      }
   },
