Ngrok

I now use Cloudflare Tunnel for exposing local services to the web (such as localhost). Bore seems nice too.

Using it

If I started my local server on port 3000. This command: ngrok http 3000 will create a shareable link of my tunneled server.

Notes

• ngrok lets you inspect incoming requests in a web UI, and even replay past requests.
