- Show HN: Port Zero – how I learned to stop worrying and love PORT=0
PortZero is a GPLv3 program that addresses port conflicts in development environments by using subdomains instead of port numbers. It assigns random available ports via the OS, creates virtual IPs and DNS records, and forwards traffic to the correct process or container. Features include HTTPS for local services and cloud tunnels for remote access.
