Will the local CA certs generate security errors in modern browsers since they’re being issued for a domain (e.g. photos.localhost) that obviously can’t be verified to a CA like Let’s Encrypt?
Caddy uses a library from step certificates which injects a self signed CA cert into your browser and OS trust stores automatically, so your browser will actually be perfectly happy with the SSL certs. The first time you run caddy it will prompt to elevate privilege so it can install the certs and then it should be good to go after that point.
