Port Buddy Documentation

Port Buddy is a tool that allows you to share a port opened on your local host or private network to the public network. It’s perfect for testing webhooks, sharing your work with clients, or exposing any local service securely.

How it works

Port Buddy works as a reverse proxy. When you run the CLI, it establishes a secure connection to our edge servers. Any traffic sent to your unique Port Buddy URL is then proxied through this connection to your local machine.
