About Ngrok
ngrok creates a secure tunnel from a local network service to a public endpoint. It supports HTTP, TLS, and TCP-based applications, allowing a locally running website or service to be reached from outside a private network. This is useful for sharing a development site, testing webhook consumers, or making a self-hosted service accessible without manually opening ports or configuring a public gateway. The service can also inspect traffic passing through the tunnel, helping developers see requests during testing. ngrok acts as a reverse proxy and tunnel, while the local application continues to run on the user’s machine. Availability depends on the tunnel configuration, network access, and the service being exposed.
