Hi there,

sounds like an awesome tool.
I fiddled around with CA and local certs one or two weeks ago and kind of got it working but it was a lot of work to do - you tool seems to be so much easier.

But what I didn't manage was to get the cert accepted on my Android device so I can do local testing there.
(Website on my computer, open to be seen from the network through IP address but via HTTPS -> needs to have an accepted cert).
As far as I got this right, I could put the CA on my Android device and that should work. But how?

Do you have ideas for that?

I added some instructions to the README. It's not exactly easy, but I don't think mkcert can do much to help. Let me know otherwise.
