HTTP-network-relay: Tunnel TCP over HTTP using WebSockets

What it does

Contribute to Thymis-io/http-network-relay development by creating an account on GitHub.

Three binaries: network-relay , edge-agent and access-client are provided to tunnel TCP over HTTP using WebSockets. The network-relay is supposed to be run on a machine with a public IP address. Ideally, network-relay should be run behind a reverse proxy that terminates TLS, such that the clients can trust the server's identity. The edge-agent is supposed to be run on a machine that needs to access the server's network. The edge-agent will establish a WebSocket connection to the server. The access-client is a script that can be used as a ProxyCommand in an SSH configuration file. It will establish a WebSocket connection to the server and forward the SSH connection over the WebSocket…from github.com

  Weron – A Peer-to-Peer VPN Based on WebRTC Written in Go2022 · github.com · ▲204

  Hey HN! I just released weron, a P2P VPN that uses WebRTC for transport which I've been working on for the last couple of months. It can create both layer 2&#x2F;Ethernet and layer 3&#x2F;IP overlay networks, and the underlying transport layer can be easily embedded to write your own P2P apps with Go. Compared to for example Tailscale, WireGuard and ZeroTier, its much harder to block on a network level and also significantly easier to set up, while not sacrifing much performance. I'd love to get your feedback :)

  Tunnelling TCP through a file2024 · github.com · ▲180

  This program can be used to tunnel TCP connections through a file. People have used it for interesting things: - Bridging connections which would otherwise be blocked by a firewall - Tunneling through RDP (similar to an SSH tunnel) - Exposing a localhost web server to others Key features I put effort into: 1. The shared file is restarted every 10 MB, so it doesn't grow indefinitely. 2. Optimisations for latency & bandwidth. (800 Mbps on a Gigabit LAN. 108 Mbps if file tunneling through RDP) 3. Synchronisation between two sides (each side can be started and restarted in any order) I'd love to…

  Pipenet – A Modern Alternative to LocaltunnelJan 2026 · pipenet.dev · ▲114

  Hey HN! localtunnel's server needs random ports per client. That doesn't work on Fly.io or behind strict firewalls. We rewrote it in TypeScript and added multiplexing over a single port. Open-source and 100% self-hostable. Public instance at *.pipenet.dev if you don't want to self-host. Built at Glama for our MCP Inspector, but it's a generic tunnel with no ties to our infra. https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;punkpeye&#x2F;pipenet

  22 GB of Hacker News in SQLite▲730

  Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite&#x2F;wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;DOSAYGO-STUDIO&#x2F;HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
