Hello Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Selcuk, the maker of ssrok.
I built ssrok because I needed a fast, secure way to expose my local environment without the complexity of heavy enterprise tools or persistent tunnels that I forget to close. I wanted something ephemeral by design—tunnels that do the job and then vanish.
What you get with ssrok:
⚡ Instant Public URLs: Expose localhost in seconds.
🔒 Security First: Token auth, optional password protection, and automatic expiration.
🛠 Developer Friendly: API-ready for programmatic tunnel creation and 100% written in Go (using yamux multiplexing).
🏠 Open Source & Self-Hosting
While there is a CLI client, the heart of ssrok is the server. The entire project is Open Source. You can (and should!) grab the binary or Docker image and host your own instance on your own VPS for complete control over your data and limits.
🐹 A tiny note on the demo instance:
I’ve set up a public instance for you to try out (ssrok.onrender.com), but full transparency: it is currently running on a very humble "free tier" machine. It tries its best, but it might take a few seconds to wake up (cold start) if it’s been napping! For production speeds, I highly recommend self-hosting or running the server binary locally.
I’d love to hear your feedback or see your PRs on GitHub!
FYI, today I also launched my other project on Product Hunt. => https://www.producthunt.com/products/linssi-screen-recorder-with-zoom
