Score: 7.8/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 9, Utility: 8)

2nnel is a self-hosted reverse tunnel and deployment platform that exposes local services to the internet via outbound WebSocket connections, serving as a drop-in replacement for ngrok. Its innovative 'promote' feature allows one-click deployment of local projects to the server using Nixpacks and Docker, bridging the gap between local development and permanent hosting. The project is interesting because it combines tunneling, a live dashboard, and a framework-agnostic build pipeline into a single, ownership-focused tool.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, fullstack devs
