Hooklink - Your localhost, reachable from anywhere
by•
Hooklink is a webhook-to-localhost bridge. You get a permanent subdomain like stripe-alice.hooklink.net that forwards incoming HTTP traffic to your local machine over a WebSocket connection. It works for webhooks and as a full HTTP tunnel.

I'm a software dev for 20+ years, and I've been battling exposing my localhost to the outer realms for different reasons without giving up speed, reliability, url rotations, over-quota, etc and decided to build my own system. And with the help of AI, I learned so much about the details of tunneling, webhook transmission, and hacks to make the bridge work smoothly. And it's still improving day by day. I'm here to get some critique to make it perfect for all developers around the world, without getting blocked by the enterprise level limitations. Hoping this stays as a developer friendly tool as long as it can. Please let me know if you use it, and what you liked and what not. I'll appreciate any single comment of yours, and try to respond.
