Description
Add the ability to configure the server to work with HTTPS by allowing the inclusion of certificates, similar to how the "Live Server" extension does
{
/* VSC settings.json */
"liveServer.settings.https": {
"cert": "C:/certs/localhost.pem",
"key": "C:/certs/localhost-key.pem",
"enable": true
},
"liveServer.settings.host": "localhost",
}
or another mechanism to enable HTTPS functionality
