For this stuff, I'm most excited about https over iroh.

- https://github.com/aflin/iroh-webproxy

- https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh-proxy-utils

No port forwarding. No public IP required. No special proxy to set up.

Iroh already runs public relays. Your two computers will signal through those, and then port-knock and form a direct connection to each other, perfectly encrypted.

We just need to define a new https:// url, like ... let's call it "irohttps://" maybe, so then you could contact my laptop with "irohttps://<hash>/path?query".

so... ICE/TURN/STUN ? Sorry I forgot which one of them actually works, but they do work

iroh-ssh works today: https://github.com/rustonbsd/iroh-ssh

Not perfectly, but good enough for port forwarding web interfaces through cgnat
