Unless running the Quick Install After Dark does not require an Internet connection to function. Leverage this feature in creative ways:

• Review the Online Help docs during a flight on Virgin Galactic.
• Keep a personal journal while couchsurfing through Southeast Asia.
• Securely generate configuration for the Web Mining add-on module.
• Run your site behind a NAT or firewall blocking all outbound requests.
• Develop your content using {{< external href=“https://termux.com” text=“Termux” />}} on Android in airplane mode.
• Report news from Timor Barat without tipping off authorities.
• Create an Image Gallery while trekking the Mount Nimbus via ferrata.

By default After Dark makes no outbound requests except when viewing certain Online Help documentation to cover related functionality.

Ephemeral hosting with end-to-end encryption

Using {{< external href=“https://serveo.net” text=“Serveo” />}} you may briefly expose your site to the Internet with end-to-end encryption, no sign-up required.

Serve and expose your site with the following command:

$ hugo serve --disableLiveReload & ssh -R 80:localhost:1313 serveo.net

Once started press g for traffic inspection, or quit to go offline and use fg to return to hugo. Install {{< external href=“https://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html” text=“dropbear” />}} or {{< external href=“https://www.openssh.com” text=“openssh” />}} if you need ssh.
