Ngrok
https://ngrok.com/ A literal life saver.
When you are working on a remote server (VM, VNC, etc.), and you launch a localhost web application - how do you access it easily on your browser? You can't just type in localhost:80
to access it as you would if you launched the web application on your local machine.
Download ngrok (look on the website for instructions)
Launch the web application on a separate terminal and make sure its running on localhost on your remote machine.
Launch ngrok:
ngrok http <port>
.Access the given ngrok URL to access the remote localhost on your browser :)
