ngrok something that ROCKS and is priceless!

As ngrok itself says:

Public URLs for exposing your local web server

Have you had an experience of when you need to test a tool and the 3rd party needs you to give a public accessible URL? Well, what would you do when you are developing a project on your PC, Laptop? You don't have any URL to give to 3rd party tools. Here ngrok truely rocks!

Downlaod it from the URL below:

https://ngrok.com/

And extract the download binay for your OS. In order to run the ngrok just do like below:

./ngrok http 5000

The above command will output some data and a part which is Forwarding for http and https:

Forwarding                    http://76eec0f8.ngrok.io -> localhost:5000
 Forwarding                    https://76eec0f8.ngrok.io -> localhost:5000

The URL 76eec0f8.ngrok.io is the part that you will give to the 3rd party. and all the other part of the URL path will be forwarded
to port 5000 on your local server.

Yes, I know it's like a magic.
