localhost versus 127.0.0.1:5000 when logging into sofia

[Ellen-Wittingen]

Runbundle exec rails server with or without -p 5000

Expected sofia to tell in the console to visit: http://localhost:5000 as that is also mentioned in the Readme.md
But it suggested http://127.0.0.1:5000 instead.

If you use sofia on 127.0.0.1 it puts 127.0.0.1 in the redirect url when logging in through amber UI, but amber ui/api does not accept 127.0.0.1 as a valid redirect url. So you should use sofia on localhost.

This might be why I never got sofia working 😅

this works now with the development environment is this issue still relevant?
