hostyoself is a service and Go CLI tool that lets you host files and websites directly from your browser, phone, or terminal via a public relay server. The relay forwards incoming HTTP requests to your device over websockets, so your machine serves the content without port forwarding or server setup.
Use cases
- host a static website from my laptop without a server
- share a folder of files with a public URL
- serve files from my phone or browser temporarily
- expose local files to the internet without port forwarding
- run my own file-hosting relay server
- quickly demo a local site to someone else
When to choose
- you need a quick, temporary public URL for local files
- you want zero-setup hosting without port forwarding or DNS
- you want to self-host the relay component yourself
When to avoid
- you need production hosting with uptime guarantees
- you need to host dynamic server-side applications like PHP or databases
- your site must stay online when your device is off
