How to install mkcert

Mkcert is creates a local certificate authority for development certificates. This page carries no procedure of its own; it records what the project is and what to look at before touching it.

Distribution in practice

Nothing universal applies here. Maintainers normally spell out the supported options, and the answer can differ between platforms and between releases.

Who is behind it

Day-to-day direction belongs to the maintainers. They set the roadmap, cut releases, and decide which platforms stay supported.

Prior checks

Confirm the platform still falls inside the supported range. Projects of this kind move quickly, and older systems tend to be dropped with little ceremony.

If something looks wrong

Most unexpected behaviour traces back to resolution rather than to the project. An older copy sitting earlier in the path, or a version manager pointing somewhere else, will do it every time.

About these notes

This domain carries reading notes only. Nothing is stored or re-published here, and every project remains where its authors placed it.

On reading release notes

Release notes are the cheapest way to catch a breaking change before it surprises you. They usually list platform shifts and removed defaults in the first few lines.
