In our own development and projects, we started listing everything you can tunnel with ngrok and we were impressed with the list. When we put the same question out to customers, we were overwhelmed with the response.
We're steadily reaching the point of wondering "What can't you tunnel with ngrok?"
Regardless, to answer the first question, we've started listing services and use-cases you can add tunnel access with ngrok, along with their one line command-line examples.
