This is the thing. I used it for debugging stripe and AWS SNS webhooks a bunch last year.
However, ngrok totally lost its soul in the past few years. It looks like the pricing was lowered again recently, but for a while there they had no “personal” or ~indie priced plan.
Meanwhile they did a feature takeaway from annual subscribers, and a less than good transition of those plans to their new system and pricing tiers.
If you go to ngrok.com right now there is a big header banner that reads: “ Announcing 50M round for API-first ingress-as-a-service. ”
This service used to be run by maybe one or two people. I could not be less interested in a developer tool that treats VC funding as something I should be excited about. The product was good the way it was.
I’m glad whoever was involved seems to have found an exit of some kind—-but all that is to say zrok looks great. I won’t renew my ngrok sub, and will go through the trouble of updating the saved dev testing URLs at stripe and AWS.
