Hey, Product Hunt! Cotunnel is a service you can connect to your device's terminal and local webservers from everywhere. Web Terminal: You don't need to use SSH client anymore. You can connect to your device's console in the Cotunnel dashboard from everywhere. Tunnel: Cotunnel creates a static subdomain for your device and you can expose your local web servers to the world. Tunnel URLs support https connection too. Team Friendly: You can share your device with your teammates as a viewer or editor. Cross-Platform: Cotunnel supports Raspberry Pi, Mac, Windows and Linux devices. You can install Cotunnel to your Linux device with an installation script. The installation script installs Cotunnel as a service and Cotunnel starts working continuously. If you have other operating systems we provide Cotunnel executable file. Also, you can build Cotunnel client from source code: https://github.com/cotunnel/client Why should I use Cotunnel? - If you need to share your localhost project with your friends. - If you need to expose your local API services for mobile apps or webhooks. - If you need to connect to your local device. - If you need to manage many devices (including VPS) you can add your devices to Cotunnel and reach terminals on the Cotunnel dashboard. - If you are working with IoT, Cotunnel is for you. You don't need another thing to connect to your devices terminals. Cotunnel has a free plan for your first device. You can check it now. You can get $10 free credit using PRODUCTHUNT promotion code.

@auchenberg Ngrok is a widely used tunnel service. Basically, I can compare cotunnel and ngrok for you. Cotunnel Free plan: Static subdomain. Your subdomain doesn't change if you restart cotunnel client. No connection Limit. Ngrok Free Plan: Random subdomain. Connection limit. Ngrok Features: HTTP(S)/TCP/UDP tunnel. Cotunnel Features: HTTP(S) tunnel (TCP and UDP under development). Remote terminal access on the cotunnel dashboard. Continous running. If you are using Linux and installed with the cotunnel installation script, cotunnel client runs continuously (as a service). Cotunnel is device based, ngrok is tunnel based. If you are selling your Linux based (including Raspberry Pi) physical product. You can check your device status (online/offline), connect the terminal with one click, check all devices, create tunnels, and connect every device's API. If you are a developer you can create tunnels to your localhost (most used) or remote connection (tunnels or terminal) to Raspberry Pi. If there is a feature (for ngrok or cotunnel) you want to add to the list, you can write it as a comment. Thank you!
