I used a similar alternative to ngrok a few years ago - frp(https://github.com/fatedier/frp). What are the advantages compared of piko and frp?

From what I could see of FRP, it only runs a single server node so isn't suitable for production traffic (which needs to be fault tolerant, scale horizontally, support zero downtime deployments...)

Piko is also designed to be easier to host, so can be hosted behind a HTTP load balancer. That does mean Piko is currently limited to HTTP only, but that seemed a worthwhile tradeoff to make it easier to host
