Replace the current domain with localhost and a custom port. EZ-Localhost: Effortless Local Development Server Switching for Developers Stop wasting time typing "http", "localhost", and port numbers every time you switch to your local development server. EZ-Localhost is the perfect Chrome extension for developers who want a fast, simple, and seamless way to test their websites locally. Features and Benefits: Instant Localhost URL Switcher: Quickly replace your production URL with a local development URL—ideal for front-end and back-end developers who frequently switch between staging and local environments. Set and Save Your Local Port: No more entering your development port every time. Set your default port (e.g., 4200), and EZ-Localhost will automatically use it to update URLs. Boost Your Development Workflow: Save time by instantly switching URLs with just one click. Avoid the repetitive task of typing out "localhost" and "http" every time you’re testing locally. Perfect for Local Development Testing: Whether you're working on API testing, front-end projects, or back-end server configurations, EZ-Localhost helps you quickly move between local development and live environments. How EZ-Localhost Works: Install the EZ-Localhost extension from the Chrome Web Store. Set your default local port (the default is 4200, but you can customize it). When you're on any website, click the extension icon to automatically replace the URL with your local development server. Say goodbye to manual URL updates, and speed up your local development process. EZ-Localhost makes it easy to test and develop websites locally, so you can focus on what matters—writing code and building awesome apps.
Hostname Replacer
Replace the hostname with the one you defined — the remaining information in the URL will be retained. This extension was created to help in a very specific situation. As a developer, you may find yourself in a situation where you need to run a task repeatedly, and this extension was created to speed up this process. During the development of a web application, you may need to switch between local server URL and remote server URL, but you may need to keep the rest of the URL information, such as paths and parameters. This extension allows you to define a URL and whenever you need to change the current URL to the one you defined, you can do it with one click.
HTTP Nowhere
This extension upgrades non-secure connections (HTTP) to secure (HTTPS). If the web site does not correctly support HTTPS, Chrome will refuse to connect (with the usual interstitial warning page). Thus, this extension will make it hard to view some web sites. For maximum safety, you should also turn on Chrome’s Secure DNS (DNS over HTTPS) feature. There is no way (yet?) for an extension to turn this on for you, so you have to do it manually. To do so, go to the dots menu → Settings → Security, and then scroll down to Use Secure DNS. Select a provider or fill in your own. (You can also get to this setting by navigating to the URL chrome://settings/security?search=dns.) HTTP Nowhere is designed to be as simple as possible, and has no functionality other than upgrading connections. This is easy to see in the very short and simple implementation. It needs no special permissions or access to the web pages you view. There is nothing to configure; HTTP Nowhere is either on or off.
