  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.

• Building a HTTP Tunnel with WebSocket and Node.JS
  2 projects | dev.to | 9 Mar 2022

  To get a fix domain, we can deploy HTTP tunnel in our own server. ngrok also provides an open source version for server side deployment. But it is old 1.x version and not recommended to deploy at production with some serious reliability issues.

• Real-time logs sharing by just piping stdout (my first golang project)

  I ended up inspired by ngork structure here: https://github.com/inconshreveable/ngrok it doesn't really work well with go modules, since i will end up running project like this:
