#4It's not mentioned anywhere in this blog post, but the project has a website at https://tunnelmole.com/ and a github repo at https://github.com/robbie-cahill/tunnelmole-client
EDIT: And, actually, I don't think this is really an ngrok alternative. Unless I'm mistaken it looks like it only supports HTTP, whereas ngrok is a generic TCP proxy. (Albeit that ngrok does not support TCP half-close because it treats it like a full close).

#5If you have a web server you control, it's pretty easy to use an ssh tunnel to do this and you control the entire thing.

#6> sudo npm install -g tunnelmole
Why not simply use npx?
npx tunnelmole

#7Many alternatives: SSH reverse tunnels, Cloudflare tunnels, various reverse proxies like FRP, Tailscale funnel (probably for short lived light connections), ngrok, etc

#8I maintain a list of similar tools here:

I'm not sure there's a single class of software that's been implemented more times than ngrok-style tunneling. I keep finding more and more.
Honestly it's a really fun exercise. Fairly challenging, but well within the reach of a single developer. I believe I'm currently working on my 5th incarnation.

also https://zrok.io/. Its open source, and has a free SaaS. Its also more comprehensive than Tunnelmore, e.g., supporting TCP or UDP tunnels.
