Can Builder.io launch using https in local?

Technical Questions
1

My builder.config.json is {
“command”: “npm run dev”,
“serverUrl”: “https://localhost:4444”
}
And I use builder.io plugin in vscode, the service is running well in https, but why builder.io must launch server use http not https, and it show me the message that “Seems like the configured
local server (http://localhost:4444/) is not responding.”

Hi AlexLi​,

The issue you’re seeing—Builder.io trying to load http://localhost:4444 instead of https://localhost:4444 despite your config—happens because the builder.config.json currently only allows you to specify the host and port, not the protocol.

Builder’s Devtools assumes the local server runs over HTTP by default. It does not currently infer the protocol from your serverUrl in builder.config.json.

Thanks,
