Description

Hello,

After running a mkcert -install and generating certificates with it, It works fine on Chrome & Firefox.

But, when I'm trying to send a request with insomnia, It tells me that the certificate can not be trusted.

Is there any way to specify to mkcert other "db" where the rootCA must be installed with certutil ?

Thanks for this great package !

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Insomnia trusts certificates and how mkcert can install its root CA into Insomnia's trust store. Look into certutil and NSS database options.
