Using inlets as a service tunnel and reverse proxy

Inlets Reverse Proxy

What is this?

Briefly, inlets let you expose your localhost to the Internet, through any NAT or firewall.

It can be an alternative solution to ngrok or localtunnel. Since it can be deployed to heroku, you can have your own fixed address, which is better for testing a webhook server.

The original project can be found here: https://github.com/inlets/inlets

Setup the server

Just click this button:

P/s: for the password, you can choose a simple one like this1sMypassw0rd
