Expose local servers to the internet using only a browser extension
You already use your browser to talk to localhost. Now it can bridge it to the internet.
Serveo is a port forwarding service that lets you expose local servers to the internet using the tools you already have.
When I started Serveo, the goal was simple: use the tools you already have. We started with SSH because it's everywhere. We added WireGuard because it's stateless and fast. But for most web developers, there is one tool that stays open all day, every day: the browser.
The browser is a remarkably sophisticated, programmable network client. It's how you interact with your local server, and it's how you interact with the internet. The Serveo Chrome extension finally bridges that gap without requiring a separate binary or a terminal window.
Watch how easy it is:
No New Clients
This continues the "No Client" philosophy of Serveo. If you're a developer, you're already in your browser and you're already on localhost. The extension just makes those two things talk to the rest of the world with one click.
Give it a spin and let me know what you think. I'm especially interested in hearing about any weird edge cases with local headers or auth flows.
