Access site from local network. It sends requests to localhost server, but the server is on the machine, that serves the site

Question

I am creating app. I build it with nodejs on server. It consists of several servers. My fronted sends requests to servers on localhost to fetch data from local servers ( so the urls for fetching data on the client is like localhost:3000/fetch_some). But when i want to visit the site from other computer of the local network ( i write in browser the ip of computer with fronted and servers, like 192.168.0.4:frontend_app_port ), the front side trying to fetch data from localhost of the computer i am running on, and it will not work, because there are no servers, that serves data on it. How to deal with it? Always configure front to send requests to 192.168.0.4 /(detect the computer local network ip) . Or there are some good issues for it? Does docker will be the right fit for this case?

您需要使用服务器的名称或地址，而不能通过从前端代码中引用localhost到达后端。
