Thanks for the Vagrant tip, part of our stack is on Heroku (small team, rather pay Heroku to deal with Ops) so I'm not sure it would solve the "mirror prod" issue. What we do instead is to use Docker to make sure we all use the same versions of the dependencies (languages and services) and to be as close as possible to the Heroku stack.

We have a monolith for the backend and our frontend on S3 + Cloudfront so our current approach was fitting our use case but I definitely want to switch to proper certificates as soon as possible.

I'm definitely not proud of the --ignore-certificate-errors as it's a risk in itself.
