## Public Testing
Run `./test-local.sh` and it'll create a public URL that you can access your local Owncast instance from. This is particularly useful for testing mobile and other external devices, as well as webhooks. Make sure Owncast is running under port 8080.
If you'd like your own custom hostname that uses your username follow the instructions printed, otherwise use auto-generated name printed to the console for testing.
```
$ ./test/test-local.sh
