localtunnel VS turf

Thanks for the history. I maintain this list[0], and wasn't aware of OG localtunnel, likely because there's a somewhat newer and now more popular project with the same name[1]. You appear to be correct on timing. Here's the earliest commits on GitHub for each of the projects:

OG localtunnel (2010): https://github.com/progrium/localtunnel/tree/fb82920d9d3e538...

Other localtunnel (2012): https://github.com/localtunnel/localtunnel/tree/93d62b9dbb9f...

ngrok (2012): https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok/tree/8f4795ecac7f92...

I'll see that OG localtunnel gets added to the list for posterity.

These is a very common problem. Luckily, it's been solved already. My go-to tool for this was ngrok or localtunnel. Both of these tools are great, but they didn't fit my needs perfectly.

localtunnel — Expose locally running servers over a tunnel to a public URL. Free hosted version, and open source.

Localtunnel used to be a nice tunnel. It has gone through some enshittification lately.

There are free non kafkaesque competitors out there.

I recently went through having to tunnel my development environment to setup an oauth2 flow for a rails integration. I found that using https://github.com/localtunnel/localtunnel was a better fit.

I prefer localtunnel: https://github.com/localtunnel/localtunnel

There's also Local Tunnel (http://localtunnel.me)

Not sure if it works combined with ngrok: https://www.npmjs.com/package/localtunnel

to measure distances and convert between our parameters I'm using TurfJS, for which binding is even more trivial:

Turf.js is an open-source geospatial analysis library that can process various location data, such as the center of gravity and distance calculations.

Isochrones are manually calculated using turf.js assuming 1.2m/s walking speed after the subway trip. These are simple buffers around each station/prior isochrone and do not take the street network into account.

Not to take away from you learning, which I think is awesome, I was wondering if you know about http://turfjs.org/ which provides a lot of simple modules … and is surprisingly hard to find. Their `distance` modules may be relevant in this case.

you can use client side libraries like Turfjs to do buffers https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/tree/master/packages/turf-buffer

Tools: custom Javascript (with heavy use of turf.js) for data processing and creating the 3D model, Blender, 3D printing, lost wax casting

I've integrated https://turfjs.org/ with mapbox before and it was pretty fun
