Port conflicts and flaky local URLs slow down development. portless provides a global CLI tool to replace hard-coded localhost ports with stable, named .localhost URLs for local development, simplifying multi-project work and proxy setups.
Install portless globally and run portless proxy start, then run your app with portless run to obtain a .localhost URL.

Use a global CLI proxy to assign named .localhost routes to local dev servers, replacing hard-coded ports with predictable URLs like http://myapp.localhost for conflict-free development.
Managing port conflicts in a multi-project monorepo is done by assigning stable .localhost URLs to each app. This keeps names and subdomains aligned with the project structure across worktrees without port collisions.
A local dev proxy works by routing traffic from named .localhost URLs to your local dev servers. It automatically starts the proxy when you run an app and keeps names aligned with project structure across worktrees.
To start a local dev proxy, install the CLI globally and run the proxy start command. Then execute your app using the run command to obtain a stable .localhost URL for local development.
You do not need to manually start the proxy every time. The proxy automatically starts when you run an app, but you can also use an explicit proxy startup command for manual control over your local dev environment.
