Help hosting Vaultwarden local only (alien.top)

Hello, I've been looking at many guides but I'm having trouble understanding how to selfhost VaultWarden locally. Could someone help me understand how I could achieve this considering,

  • I don't have a domain
    • It would be nice to do something like vaultwarden.local or vaultwarden.homelab.local instead of typing in the homelab's pc static ip and the port vaultwarden is on
  • I don't want to expose anything outside of my local network
    • Security reasons
    • I am now well versed in networking so I don't want to risk leaving an entry point for unwanted users or hackers

I also learned that I would need to sign certificates to be able to access it on some browsers and the additional security. I learned that Traefik offers self-signed certificates, but every video I have seen starts talking about needing a domain and cloudflare tunneling and I get lost.

It would be nice if I could get help or advice from the r/selfhosted community because I am new to all of this but want to learn and host more applications and services locally. Thank you.

I'm using the cloudfare tunnel. That way i don't have to deal with any certificate.

That is the right thing, I use the same.
