Hope it helps exposing services and apps as you dev

@robi I agree, I think this would be very cool, and a great use of a Cloudron app so one doesn't have to resort to something proprietary with a public/not-your domain like ngrok. Not to dump on ngrok, it's a great tool, I just think having it packaged for Cloudron could have some great use cases.

@robi https://boringproxy.io/tunneling-comparison/ looks very interesting, indeed.

@necrevistonnezr seems like a perfect tool to add to the base image so every app can use it, in case the entire cloudron is behind a NAT.

there is also the Ngrok-cimm Snap shipping ngrok 2 (open source) before it went dark (closed source)

@rmdes groom seems even better than boringproxy. Would be nice if it had a webUI, would make a nice App for us.

boringproxy has a UI now and free subdomains
