HTTPS on Localhost with Next.js
The experimental HTTPS flag relies on mkcert, designed for a single development system. If you run a Docker container, the flag won’t configure your local browser to trust its certificate.

You Can't Follow Me
The author mentions difficulties with HTTPS and trying stuff locally.
I've had some success with mkcert [1] to easily create certificates trusted by browsers, I can suggest to look into this. You are your own root CA, I think it can work without an internet connection.

Show HN: Anchor – developer-friendly private CAs for internal TLS
My project, getlocalcert.net[1] may be the one you're thinking of.
Since I'm also building in this space, I'll give my perspective. Local certificate generation is complicated. If you spend the time, you can figure it out, but it's begging for a simpler solution. You can use tools like mkcert[2] for anything that's local to your machine. However, if you're already using ACME in production, maybe you'd prefer to use ACME locally? I think that's what Anchor offers, a unified approach.
There's a couple references in the Anchor blog about solving the distribution problem by building better tooling[3]. I'm eager to learn more, that's a tough nut to crack. My theory for getlocalcert is that the distribution problem is too difficult (for me) to solve, so I layer the tool on top of Let's Encrypt certificates instead. The end result for both tools is a trusted TLS certificate issued via ACME automation.

Running one’s own root Certificate Authority in 2023
Looks like step-ca/step-cli [1] and mkcert [2] have been mentioned. Another related tool is XCA [3] - a gui tool to manage CAs and server/client TLS certificates. It takes off some of the tedium in using openssl cli directly. It also stores the certs and keys in an encrypted database. It doesn't solve the problem of getting the root CA certificate into the system store or of hosting the revocation list. I use XCA to create and store the root CA. Intermediate CAs signed with it are passed to other issuers like vault and step-issuer.

Horcrux: Split your file into encrypted fragments
The author of this tool basically took the Shamir code from Hashicorp Vault, which is pretty mainstream. If you're looking for a solid implementation, I would start there[0]. I wouldn't use the Shamir code from this repo, as it's an old version of the vault code using field arithmetic that doesn't run in constant time.
