Essential Tool for Local Development Awareness

Localhost Warning is a free Chrome extension designed specifically for developers working in local or development environments. It automatically detects when users are on localhost, , .docker, or development domains and displays a prominent red warning banner at the top of the page. This visual cue serves as a reminder to prevent accidental changes or actions that could affect production systems. The extension requires no additional setup, making it easy to use across various web pages.

With Localhost Warning, developers can focus on their work without the fear of mistakenly executing code in non-production environments. The straightforward functionality ensures a seamless experience, as the extension works automatically once installed. It is particularly beneficial for teams and testers who frequently switch between local and staging environments, providing peace of mind while coding.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
