Impossible to use non-localhost addresses for dev server

When you get to the DIM api key part of the initial setup, if your server is remote, you get an error that says "Could not register app: InvalidRequest - Can only register apps for localhost or 127.0.0.1, your host was [your server]".
In addition to the obvious limitations, this makes it impossible to do development on a Chromebook. The linux vm that you can start is only accessible to the main chrome instance via 100.115.92.197.
(to anyone who finds this later: you also need to run yarn start with --host 0.0.0.0 --disable-host-check)

Thanks for the report - I haven’t tried that.
I’d be happy to accept a PR to the dim-api repo that expands this check to allow private IP ranges.
