Not many people know that you can use cloudflare tunnels without signing up.

I sure did not! How would that work? Manually pointing the domain as a CNAME to the tunnel ID? But how would one get that ID without signing up?
I have a demo with working GitHub runner workflow code here: https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne

Specifically: https://github.com/BrowserBox/ariadne/blob/f07e3b0d445f5d4a8...

Hey if you are interested in re-using any of this GitHub Action, feel free to: https://github.com/LocalXpose/localxpose-action
Thank you bud, was not aware of local expose. There’s a bunch of these tunneling services out there, what makes yours uniquely cool?
Probably not an exciting answer but my work focused on stability and performance. There are indeed a lot of cool alternatives. I think Localxpose is for businesses who aren't interested in self-hosting and just need a service that will reliably handle production traffic. I don't know if that's unique (or cool, lol)
Alrighty, well I might through it into the BrowserBox mix. We are currently using a variety of tunnels for punching through network layers and providing networking flexibility.
