# Localhost Demo
#
# Script to create a tunnel on a remote server. Be sure to configure it to use
# your server's SSH information. You can use this script to temporarily showcase
# a local Web server to the Internet. All you need is a domain and a VPS with
# nginx (or similar software) configured to proxy REMOTE_PORT (see 
# configurations) to port 80.
