Using the Vanilla JS Component template with LAMP

I use the Vanilla JS Component at https://github.com/guitarbeerchocolate/vanilla-js-component, and you have LAMP server on my box. However, when I want to call PHP scripts which are on the LAMP server such as, in a POST request using fetch or XHR within JavaScript I get the following errors in my browser:
Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'http://localhost/test/vanilla-js-POST-JSON/login.php' from origin 'http://localhost:8080' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

postjson_xhr.js:19 Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) blocked cross-origin response http://localhost/test/vanilla-js-POST-JSON/login.php with MIME type text/html. See https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5629709824032768 for more details.

Obviously, it's treating the LAMP server like another domain.

The way to fix this is to put a line at the top of your PHP script thus:
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
Happy coding.
