Smuggl

What it does

Smuggl lets you share your localhost as a secure link instead of blindly exposing your computer to the whole internet.

Smuggl lets you share your localhost server as a secure, invite only link. No public URLs, no port forwarding, just share with the people you choose.

One command opens a WebSocket to Smuggl's server. You get a unique URL. Your machine is never exposed. Every request pauses at the server. You see the visitor's IP and path, then allow or block. Approved requests flow over the WebSocket to your localhost and back. The visitor sees a normal page. Close the CLI and the URL dies immediately. No DNS lingers, no sessions persist.

  Talanoa▲340

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
