lt: Request a specific subdomain.
$ lt --port ${8000} --subdomain ${subdomain}
try on your machine

This command is using a tool or command-line utility named "lt" to create a tunnel for accessing a locally hosted website or service from the internet.

  • --port ${8000}: This option is specifying the port number to expose through the tunnel. In this case, it is set to 8000. This means that the locally hosted website or application is running on port 8000 on the user's machine.

  • --subdomain ${subdomain}: This option is specifying the subdomain to be used for accessing the tunnel. The value of ${subdomain} would be replaced with an actual subdomain name. For example, if ${subdomain} is "example", the tunnel will be created with the subdomain "example.localtunnel.me". This allows accessing the locally hosted website or service remotely through this subdomain.

Overall, this command sets up a tunnel to make a locally hosted website or service accessible through the internet using a specified port (8000) and a custom subdomain.
