Quick Self-Signed Certs Sitecore 9.x

When you download and install Sitecore XP1, you need to install all of the certificates first. If you need to do this often like I do, this can be quite tedious.  Stealing some code from the Single-Developer.ps1, this simple foreach wrapper is a huge time saver.

This assumes you already have the Sitecore Installation Framework installed(SIF) and can execute PowerShell scripts. Please use real certificates in production.

Enjoy!
