Lokal is a tool for securely exposing a local server to the internet and working with https .local domains. Run an app on your machine and get a public URL or a .local mDNS address for testing, demos, and integrations.
Public URLs and https .local for development
Lokal creates a tunnel from a local endpoint to an external address, so your local API or site is reachable via a stable link without deploying.
- Public URLs for sharing with teammates, clients, or external services
- https .local domains via mDNS for local-network workflows
- Useful for webhooks, mobile app testing, and remote collaboration
HTTP inspection for debugging
Built-in HTTP inspection helps you understand what’s happening in integrations by showing request and response details.
- View headers, bodies, and status codes
- Diagnose webhook failures and third-party API issues
- Debug payment gateways and other external callbacks
SDK, plugins, and AI assistant
Lokal supports common stacks with plugins and offers SDKs for deeper customization.
- Plugins for Vite, Webpack, and Laravel
- SDKs for multiple languages
- An AI assistant to help with configuration, use cases, and common tunnel setup problems
