   I’ve been developing an e-commerce for a few days locally(
   localhost) with xampp.I need to have e-commerce in https.That’s why I thought
   of this plugin.Before installing it I would like to know if it is right for me.
   the plugin works on local environment (localhost)Thank youGianluca

 * Hi [@gsbarro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gsbarro/),
 * As it’s not possible to generate an SSL certificate for localhost with Let’s 
   Encrypt, this won’t work from the plugin either (as it uses the Let’s Encrypt
   api).
 * We’ve written an article about this for Map, perhaps it will help you set it 
   up with xampp as well:
