How do i make my Flask App run on an HTTPS link instead of a HTTP one?

I'm running a website on Flask on an http link (the one provided by flask during development) but i would like to turn it https. How do i do it?

Searching on the web i've only found answers related to old Flask versions (i'm currently using Flask_2.2.4) where you could simply insert a parameter inside the "app.run()" function indicating that the server should be https, but i think that it's not working anymore. Anything would be helpful, thank you in advance for the answers.

If you're using flask run you can add --cert=adhoc to the end. Example: flask run --cert=adhoc. If you're using app.run you can do app.run(ssl_context='adhoc'). However you will get a warning from your browser saying this site is not secure, etc. In order to do this you need to do pip install pyopenssl
