    frp

    A fast reverse proxy to help you expose a local server behind a NAT or firewall to the internet.
    I've been self-hosting <a href="https://github.com/fatedier/frp">https://github.com/fatedier/frp</a> on my little box, and it feels insane to think of the times where I didn't have it set up. There are many choices in the space as others pointed out, but frp's capabilities and lightweight packaging blows all other setups out of the water. I placed mine behind nginx with Let's Encrypt for SSL support. Hella fresh!

    I built a similar service as well called Packetriot: https://packetriot.com Building these types of tunneling systems are great projects. You learn a lot and can master skills in many different areas. Packetriot has been operating for five years and the first few years was all spent on performance and stability of the core networking services. As the software and network matured, I spent more time on the operations and maintenance, and automating as much of that as possible. Recently I've begun building tools to detect phishing and potential malicious behaviors. This is a common problem that operators of these tunnel networks have to deal with. It's an interesting and fun technical area and helps make the Internet a safer place :).
