For
Developers testing localhost apps and webhooks
Worth noticing
The homepage provides a generated npx liveapps tunnel command and a name-availability check before launch.

Field notes

The page describes a relay architecture in which wildcard DNS sends HTTPS requests to a hostname-aware relay, then an outbound socket carries them back to the user’s local port. It shows a concrete npx command and a playground for checking whether a chosen subdomain is available. The documented limits include one local port, idle-session reaping, and no streamed responses.
