Routeup – stable local HTTPS URLs and opt-in public tunnels

Routeup is a new Go-based tool providing stable local HTTPS URLs with optional public tunneling, inspired by frustrations with ngrok and localtunnel. It allows developers to give local apps real names like example-app.localhost while selectively exposing paths for external services without disrupting the local workflow.

Background

Local development tunneling tools like ngrok and localtunnel have been popular for years, but they follow a tunnel-first model that some developers find cumbersome for everyday local development workflows.
