ngrok is a Node.js wrapper for the ngrok tunneling client, allowing developers to expose local services to the internet directly from JavaScript or the command line. It is commonly used for webhook testing, local API demos, development previews, and temporary public access to local applications. The package can start HTTP, TCP, and TLS tunnels, with options for ports, regions, authentication tokens, basic authentication, custom configuration paths, and logging callbacks. It also exposes a wrapper around ngrok’s local client API, letting applications list tunnels, start or stop tunnels, inspect requests, replay requests, and clear request history. The module can be installed locally for application-level use or globally for CLI-style tunneling. ...

Next generation tracker and advertisement blocker. Privaxy is a MITM HTTP(s) proxy that sits in between HTTP(s) talking applications, such as a web browser and HTTP servers, such as those serving websites. By establishing a two-way tunnel between both ends, Privaxy is able to block network requests based on URL patterns and to inject scripts as well as styles into HTML documents. Operating at a lower level, Privaxy is both more efficient as well as more streamlined than browser add-on-based...

The response to the request, sent to the server, is then repackaged as an HTTP response and relayed back to the client. ...
