About:
LocalXpose is a secure reverse proxy tool that creates a tunnel from the internet to your local development environment. It allows you to share local web services, APIs, and webhooks with clients or collaborators without deploying to a staging server. It supports multiple protocols including HTTP, TCP, and TLS, making it versatile for various development and testing scenarios.
Key Features:
  • Supports HTTP, TCP, and TLS protocols
  • Custom subdomains and custom domains
  • Password protection for shared tunnels
  • Request inspection and replay functionality
  • Native macOS, Linux, and Windows support
Use Cases:
  • Testing webhooks from third-party services (Stripe, GitHub, Slack) on your local machine
  • Sharing a local development web server with clients for real-time feedback
  • Exposing local databases or APIs for temporary remote access
Alternatives:
  • ngrok – ngrok is the industry standard with more features but stricter rate limits on the free tier
  • cloudflared – Cloudflare's tunnel solution, excellent for production use but requires a Cloudflare account
  • localtunnel – Open-source alternative, simpler setup but fewer advanced features and security options
