Maybe I'm just getting entrenched in my ways of working, but I fail to see the point of this.

  • If you're after a dev environment - self signed is more than enough as you can just make it trusted.
  • If you need certs at any scale bigger than a couple - rolling out a local CA is a less convoluted solution with fewer bits to break in the long run.

Based on the title, I was expecting it to be an easy way to automate what you just said. But it's not.

Reading the page and docs, I don't understand the use case for this.

Agreed. When I’ve had to make local carts every couple years, I have to spend 3 hours hacking a process together and remembering it all. I was hoping somebody would do something that “just works”, but this still seems like more conceptual burden than I was hoping for
