Using tunneling via Cloudflare in your self-hosted applications

From my experience with portainer so far, testing and make some configurations to be able to acces all my services outside of my local network, I've been testing ngnix and cloudflare tunnels so far. If you are "lazzy" and want a fast secure solution you can use the cloudflare sollution for tunneling by parking your domain out there , then navigating to Zero Trust section where you can configure directly a tunnel by your choice, its pretty eassy to go throught that steps, from choosing your domain , for managing the network roules and mapping you local port.

This is a great way to securely access your self-hosted apps! Cloudflare's tunnel solution really simplifies the process. If you’re looking for hosting options to support these setups, Cloudways offers flexible cloud hosting with easy integrations. Other solid options like DigitalOcean or Linode also provide great container and Docker support.
