I have an idea for a how-to article. This would help me, but also potentially lots who use the free argo-tunnel or cloudflared.

The structure is similar, but Cloudflare obscure the routing part while exposing the policy part.

I am happy to prepare and provide the Cloudflare examples and work with writing the article. I find the best way to understand someone is to teach someone else or write documentation about it.

If this could be an ZitiTV episode that could be cool.

I’m not entirely sure I understand the ask but if you put a PR up against the ziti-doc repo – or really even a blog post somewhere else like like medium/dev.to/hashnode/whatever so that people can review it and so that I can understand better what you mean that’d be cool and then we can go from there?

On thinking of it, I don’t think they serve the same purpose at all. Cloudflare’s tunnels are designed to publish web services to the world. So I don’t think there is enough similarity to start this. Maybe later as I gain familiarity I will circle back.
