That's really cool. I guess this is an alternative to ngrok (which I like but hate due to having to sign in).

- klipitkas 10mo agoYes, its free to use and does not require any clients (but you need to have ssh client installed)
- keepamovin 10mo agoNot many people know that you can use cloudflare tunnels without signing up.
- frizlab 10mo agoI sure did not! How would that work? Manually pointing the domain as a CNAME to the tunnel ID? But how would one get that ID without signing up?
- keepamovin 10mo agoI have a demo with working GitHub runner workflow code here: https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne Specifically: https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne/blob/f07e3b0d445f5d4a89bdd7485e936a0843ca2700/.github/workflows/tunnel-sandbox.yml#L227 https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne/blob/f07e3b0d445f5d4a8...
- kilobaud 10mo agoHey if you are interested in re-using any of this GitHub Action, feel free to: https://github.com/LocalXpose/localxpose-action https://github.com/LocalXpose/localxpose-action
- keepamovin 10mo agoThank you bud, was not aware of local expose. There’s a bunch of these tunneling services out there, what makes yours uniquely cool?
- kilobaud 10mo agoProbably not an exciting answer but my work focused on stability and performance. There are indeed a lot of cool alternatives. I think Localxpose is for businesses who aren't interested in self-hosting and just need a service that will reliably handle production traffic. I don't know if that's unique (or cool, lol)
- keepamovin 10mo agoAlrighty, well I might through it into the BrowserBox mix. We are currently using a variety of tunnels for punching through network layers and providing networking flexibility.
