Secure TCP tunnel from anywhere with curl and nc for single connection
You can self-host easily on Heroku, Replit, Glich, etc. See https://github.com/nwtgck/piping-server/wiki/How-to-self-host-Piping-Server for detail.
I found a higher transparent way that uses existing and widely used commands: nc and curl. The original idea of a port forwarding with socat, curl, and Piping Server was proposed in a Japanese article by @Cryolite. Meanwhile, this post introduces a way using nc (netcat), which is more widely used and installed than socat, and the way allows simple integration with other commands using Unix pipe. It is very helpful when using an untrustable server because we can integrate it with an encryption command such as openssl.

CLI to browser P2P fileshare
I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
