Jammming project: Spotify API won't let you use local host anymore

The Spotify API has recently changed its redirect URI requirements to not include any localhost servers. I’ve been using 127.0.0.1:5173 and I’ve been able to set up a search for songs and add them to a playlist but I can’t get access to a users profile. I normally wouldn’t ask but its been about 50 hours on this one project. Even the Spotify API documentation recommended testing applications on git, GitHub - spotify/web-api-examples: Basic examples to authenticate and fetch data using the Spotify Web API, don’t work anymore. I’m stopping this project for now, it seems way too hard for a beginner developer. Even after diving deep into Oauth and studying PKCE Flow I still can’t get it.
