How to change the default browser opened for localhost?-CodePudding

I have been working with React.js for a couple months now, developing using VS Code, Chromium-based browsers (ditched Chrome, switched to Brave as default browser) and a Windows machine (Windows 10).

Recently, my friend have recommended that I switch to using Firefox for development, and as lazy as developers can go, I wanna ask how to configure such that when I do npm start, localhost:3000 will appear in Firefox instead of my original default browser. I do not want to change my default browser.

Update

From recommendations I have found this other post:
create-react-app: How do I "npm start" with a specific browser?

Further comments are still welcome XD

Change default browser from your machine. Follow the steps in the link below to do it in windows 10.

Edit Your package.json like that:

"scripts": {
    "start": "BROWSER=firefox react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "test": "react-scripts test",
    "eject": "react-scripts eject"
  },

Type npm start and Voila :-P Best Regards ;-)
