alt Hacker NewsThere's a simple method you can use with nginx and /etc/hosts, I wrote about it couple days ago [0]. I used it for an internal demo recently and realized that a new breed of devs have never seen a non localhost url run locally.

I essentially do this.
Super simple. (although I use rewrites at my dns layer for the whole local lan, but whatever)
It also solves issues my password manager has with multiple services on the one host but with different ports, but putting each on their own 2nd level domain.
