    The first software I heard of that could expose localhost to an external address was ngrok. Ngrok documentation has an excellent guide on how you could use it to expose your localhost to public internet over a secure channel. After you connect ngrok to your account, run the command ngrok http 8080 and get the publically available forwarding URL.

    One other app that I occasionally use for WordPress is Local by Flywheel. This app comes with Live Links, which enables you to “test your site with provisioned site tunnels from your Local account.”.
