tunneling:

binding a web service running on localhost to a public endpoint.
useful when you want to expose the service running on your development machine to a dependent team member (like UI developers)

I do this a lot using 3rd party services like ngrok but I keep running out of credits quickly, so finally I made my own tunneling service:

now when I want to temporarily expose a web service/page from localhost, I run:

`just tunnel-service <PORT>`

which automatically creates a random string DNS CNAME record hostname under my tunneling domain *.tunnel.wtf

father, husband, css golfer, ux engineer, silently defining variables as /sdv sdv.wtf

An aside but I remember ngrok before it came a paid service. It felt like pure wizardry

do you use the quick `cloudflared tunnel --url ...` or do you have your own managed one?

poll seems broken but I use cloudflare tunnel
