About:
Devtunnel is a command-line tool that creates secure, ephemeral tunnels to local web services, enabling safe sharing of development environments. It integrates with Microsoft Dev Tunnels service to manage access with authentication and fine-grained controls. This allows developers to expose localhost ports to the internet for testing, collaboration, and webhook development without exposing sensitive infrastructure.
Key Features:
  • Secure tunneling with Microsoft authentication
  • Share localhost ports via public or private URLs
  • CLI and Visual Studio integration
  • Support for multiple active tunnels
Use Cases:
  • Testing webhooks from external services on localhost
  • Sharing preview environments with stakeholders
  • Collaborative debugging between team members
Alternatives:
  • ngrok – Popular alternative with similar functionality but requires separate account management
  • localtunnel – Open-source option with simpler setup but fewer enterprise features
