Laragon share project - hyperlink

I have Wordpress installed on Laragon server where I develop sites locally and then move them to live webhost.
How can I share a link to my Laragon Wordpress project permanently say if I need to post it for questions here on WordPress Stack Exchange? I tried Ngrok but the URL produced by Ngrok changes every time Ngrok is restarted (I previously registered a free account and authorized it with token but it didn't help and the URl seems to change or expire).

Autodesk Forge API doesn't work behind firewalls

I followed the tutorial on learnforge.autodesk.io and was able to create a functioning app that accesses data from Construction Cloud and displays them using Forge viewer. The problem is, I'm not able to access Autodesk's login screen behind a firewall (which usually happens when sales team visits a client's office).
For what it's worth, I'm using ExpressJS for backend and have HTTPS enabled. The firewall at client's site also blocks access to virtual machine services like Parsec.
I don't even know exactly what the problem is (or how to troubleshoot), all I know is that this login link:
https://developer.api.autodesk.com/authentication/v1/authorize?response_type=code
&client_id=<client_id>
&redirect_uri=<callback_url>
&scope=<scope>
doesn't work behind a firewall (it works fine through mobile data hotspot though).
So is there anything I can do on my end to make it work?
If that's not possible, what must the client do in order to access my app from behind their firewall?

callbackurl while connecting to vso using oAuth

I am trying to connect to VSO using oAuth.
First step is to register our app and configure a call back url.
I am creating a console application to test the connectivity.
Please let me know how to configure the callback url.
Firstly, please take note that: Right now, it is only supported to register web application, it is impossible to register a console app.
So, you need to have a web app first, you can download and use this sample project for a quick start: https://vsooauthclientsample.codeplex.com/
After you download the app, open it in VS2013 or higher, right-click it in Solution Explorer and select Publish.
On the Publish Web page, select Microsoft Azure Website option to publish that web app to Azure.
Then, the web app is published to Azure with the URL similar to: https://vsodevabc.azurewebsites.net
And when you register this web app, you can set Application Website and Callback URL to be the followings. (note: the callback URL should be https://yoursite.azurewebsites.net/oauth/callback, where "yoursite" is the name of your Azure web site)
When using VSO (now called Team Services) with oAuth2.0 you do have to provide callback url endpoint that Microsoft's Team Services can call directly. So you need to have your application's callback url endpoint published such as publishing to Azure or Aws or any hosting provider that will allow you to have publically accessible url. In the FAQ under Team Services Rest API, there is mention of this approach for debugging purposes:
Visual Studio Team Services does not allow localhost to be the hostname in your callback URL. You can edit the hosts file on your local computer to map a hostname to 127.0.0.1. Then use this hostname when you register your app. Or, you can deploy your app when testing to a Microsoft Azure website to be able to debug and use HTTPS for the callback URL

What Request URL for Voice in TwiML App setup should I use when I develop on localhost?

I am creating an app in ASP.NET-MVC where I can call phone number from browser.
To do that I need to create capability token like in the sample:
var capability = new TwilioCapability(accountSid, authToken);
capability.AllowClientOutgoing(appSid);
capability.AllowClientIncoming("jenny");
string token = capability.GenerateToken();
The appSid is an identifier of TwimlApp created on my Twilio account as described here: https://www.twilio.com/help/faq/twilio-client/how-do-i-create-a-twiml-app
I have absolutely no idea what should I put in the Request URL in Voice section. I develop on locally on my computer. ASP.NET-MVC app is run on localhost.
Sample image from Twilio's website:
Developing with a web service like Twilio can be difficult when it needs to make requests from a server to your development environment. One of the best tools I've found to make this easy is called ngrok.
ngrok allows you to create tunnels to your machine and give them a friendly name with a custom port.
For example, you could setup ngrok locally on your machine to forward all requests from twilio to yoda.ngrok.com to your environment. This makes it really easy to develop locally with web hooks. Let me know if you have any questions on getting setup!

How to handle Twilio postbacks in Cloud9 IDE dev server?

I'm building a Rails app in Cloud9 IDE, and part of the application involves interactive voice response. The end-user calls the Twilio phone number, and then Twilio POSTs into the Rails app.
The app is working fine when deployed on Heroku, but the deployment process is an extra step. I would like to point Twilio directly at the app running in Cloud9, but it doesn't work. Cloud9 requires one to be logged in to access the dev-server URL, and Twilio can't log in.
Is there a way to tell Cloud9 not to require login to access my dev server? I'd love to just make an edit, click run, call my Twilio number and test. As it is now, I have to git commit and deploy to Heroku on each iteration.
Help! ;)
In a private workspace, you can enable your app to be accessible publicly by clicking the 'Share' menu, and making your application public. Doing so will not make your project public, but your running server would become accessible without authentication.

HTTPS url not valid

I created an app to be used in a page tab. I have it hosted on my server which has a SSL protocol associated. However, the https url hasn't the usual naming (you can see it below):
https://secure395.websitewelcome.com/~rexdot/discoverylocker/
Is there any reason FB doesn't accept this? I'm sure this is the https url, it was given from my server support. And I'm also sure the app is there and fully working.
Thanks!
according to hostgator only solution is to pay for your own SSL. I've used other hosting services with reseller accounts and never had this issue before. In fact, the apps were running fine on those shared SSL certs from other companies.
So, one big reason why hostgator is not the way to go... their shared SSL is for websitewelcome.com which has been flagged as spam.
