Problem
Accessing local web servers and terminal consoles remotely often requires complex configurations, such as static IPs or DDNS services. Managing these configurations can be cumbersome and time-consuming for developers and IT professionals.
Solution
Cotunnel provides a service that allows users to securely connect to their device's terminal and local web servers from any location without the need for static IPs or DDNS. The platform creates secure tunnels to localhost, generating public URLs to expose local web servers, including support for HTTPS connections. Users can access their device's console directly from the Cotunnel dashboard, eliminating the need for an SSH client. Cotunnel simplifies remote access and enhances team collaboration through device sharing with configurable privileges.
