Video Description

In this video we will explain how you can author a web application, host it on your laptop then expose it through the internet via port forwarding. We will explain the difference between private ip in Local Area network and Public IP, we will explain how routers have two IP addresses public and private IP. We will also do a live edit on my router configuration to do a port forwarding of port 8080 to my local laptop and even access that through my phone. -Hussein Stay Awesome! Hussein
