If you’re getting tired of localhost:3000 URLs while working on your development projects, it might be time to consider setting up a custom domain or using a tunneling service like ngrok. This way, you can access your local server from anywhere without the need to keep using localhost links. Additionally, if you're working with front-end projects, tools like Vite or Webpack Dev Server allow for quicker, more efficient local development.
