Hi HN! I'm Alex, one of the creators of tunnelto.dev. We built this service because it's crucial to be able to test your website, app, or backend server as if it were in production. We built tunnelto.dev is both a free service (hosted by us) and an open source project (that you can host yourself). Both the tunnelto.dev CLI and server are open source on GitHub[1], built in Rust. Since you can host it yourself, there's no vendor lock-in...perfect for use in the enterprise when you can't breach the corporate network. Tunnelto.dev is free even with customized sub-domains. We only charge a small monthly fee if you want to reserve specific domains for yourself on our hosted version. Happy to answer any questions you might have! [1]: https://github.com/agrinman/tunnelto
In Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
