[Let's encrypt]({{site_root}}/blog/2015/12/13/setup-encryption-using-lets-encrypt/) will only work if you have a DNS entry and remote access is allowed.
[Let's encrypt]({{site_root}}/blog/2017/09/27/effortless-encryption-with-lets-encrypt-and-duckdns/) will only work if you have a DNS entry and remote access is allowed.
The solution is to use a self-signed certificate. As you most likely don't have a certification authority (CA) your browser will complain about the security. If you have a CA then this will not be an issue.
To create a certificate locally, you need the [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org/) command-line tool.
