I see, however, I really don't care about security at this point because this is a localhost connection anyways. It's just that because of the other wss-based websocket it would be ideal to run the localhost websocket with wss as well. So - in front of that background it would be the ideal solution in combination with non-existing certificates. It would be great if you'd send me a pointer how to approach this. > What you can do is generate a certificate every couple of months, in each > machine that uses your application.
