Map custom domains like domain.local to your local dev servers. HTTPS that just works, reverse proxy, public tunnels, and a system tray for quick control. All from a clean native app.
Watch how LocalDomain streamlines your local development workflow
Scan and import existing Apache VirtualHosts in one click
Auto-generated certificates trusted by your system
Create public URLs for local sites in seconds
Create *.local domains with wildcard support
Even more tools to streamline your local development experience.
Route any custom domain to a specific local port. Point domain.local to localhost:3000 and api.domain.local to localhost:8080.
Enable wildcard support so *.domain.local resolves automatically. Perfect for multi-tenant apps or microservices.
A lightweight daemon runs in the background managing your hosts file, proxy server, and TLS certificates. Optionally starts on boot.
Every change is recorded. See exactly when a domain was added, modified, or removed. Full transparency for your local setup.
Control everything from the system tray without opening the window. Toggle domains, start or stop services, and see live status at a glance.
Watch HTTP requests hit your domains in real time. See method, path, status code, and timing for each request - like a built-in dev tools network tab.
No terminal commands. No config files. Just a clean app.
Download LocalDomain and open it. The setup wizard will ask for your admin password to install a lightweight background service that manages your hosts file and proxy.
Click "Add Domain" and type the domain you want. Choose the target port, pick HTTP, HTTPS, or both, and optionally enable wildcard.
That's it. Navigate to https://domain.local in any browser and it just works - valid certificate, no warnings, routed to your local dev server.
