Description
I’ve been experimenting with creating a more user-friendly interface for launching **RDP, SSH, and generic TCP tunnels** using `cloudflared`.
Many users find it inconvenient to manage tunnels solely through CLI or YAML, especially for quick ad-hoc access.
To address this, I built a small desktop prototype that simplifies tunnel creation and management:
**https://github.com/mlanies/desktop-argo-tunnel**
### Dashboard

The app:
- provides a very simple UI for starting tunnels locally
- auto-generates required commands
- handles the tunnel lifecycle
- displays connection parameters in a clean, accessible form
I'd be happy to hear your thoughts or suggestions and whether such a tool aligns with Cloudflare Tunnel’s UX direction or could inspire improvements in the official ecosystem.
Thanks for your great work on `cloudflared`!
