You're developing a web application with Visual Studio Code and want to show it to your client, or let someone at work test it, or verify its functionality from a physical mobile phone for debugging purposes... But since it's running on your local computer, how can you give them access from the outside? The solution: tunnels to the internet. Until now, you needed to use a third-party service like NGrok (https://ngrok.com/) or LocalXpose (https://localxpose.io/) to achieve this, but since #VSCode version 1.82, you can now do it directly from the environment, without the need for additional tools.

Learn how Visual Studio Code lets you show your app to anyone.
