🚨 Update alert! We've leveled up! LocalCan's Public URLs are now more reliable. Previously, in rare cases when the internet connection was unstable, the Public URL could expire prematurely. It's now fixed. They will now stay persistent and expire only after 7 days of inactivity

Friday deployment? Yay! 😎
🌐 Public URLs now support connections using TLS v1.2, in addition to TLS v1.3, for enhanced compatibility with older systems. Previously, webhooks from services like Mandrill and Clever Cloud weren't being received, as they only support TLS v1.2.

Predictable and consistent Content-Security-Policy (CSP) headers 🚀
The Content-Security-Policy header is now fully set by your app/server. LocalCan will not set any defaults, so if the app/server won't set CSP, it won't be present in the response.

When using Auth.js
@nextauthjs
in development with LocalCan Public URLs, make sure to set the AUTH_REDIRECT_PROXY_URL variable. ✨
It's necessary because LocalCan acts as a proxy.

Thrilled 🚀. It's amazing to see how LocalCan is benefiting backend developers, front-end developers, and testers alike!🌐
@jarekceborski
@LocalCanApp
I love it so much. Our backend developers now often use it to deploy services and then debug together with front-end developers. Testers can also test more conveniently. With custom domains, we can do more things!

Save yourself from memorizing port numbers! 🫡
@phuctm97
my solution for this is to use
@LocalCanApp
😄
can‘t live without it anymore, no need to juggle around with random port names, just feels better to work with domains even locally and testing across devices in the same network is a breeze

🌐 Need more custom domains?
Now, if you have multiple LocalCan licenses (seats) linked to the same email, you get 2 custom domains per license. For example, with 2 seats, you can use up to 4 custom domains (e.g., 3 on one seat and 1 on another)
