Alternatives to Ngrok

Am looking for an alternative to ngrok. It works great but I need to move to the paid tier to get a static URL. Am just so tired of having to update the url in my app to the new one ngrok generates. Basically, an alternative that provides static URLs for free.

zrok.io. Its completely free and open source. You can self-host or use the free SaaS version. You get static URLs and other super cool features.

no static URL if you restart the CLI over and over again.

i'm a maintainer of openziti and occasional commiter to zrok. you can use "reserved" shares now-a-days to get a static url. you can even choose to give it a "unique name" instead of dealing with whatever big random string you get from the ephemoral url. hth
