    i'll need to open a pull request for [tolocal](https://github.com/nelsonenzo/tolocal) :). It's clunky because it requires node and terraform and AWS, but all your stuff is self hosted and can be e2e encrypted, costs almost nothing, can be used with real domain names, etc. I would like to make it all JS at some point (the actual terraform is minimal), but it's hard to see why when Cloudflare Tunnel is a thing now.
