Quick Start

We strive to make working with Tuna comfortable for everyone, both experienced users and beginners, so we support 2 clients:

  1. Console utility tuna - has a full set of features and integrations with the platform. A Swiss army knife in the hands of an experienced developer.
  2. Desktop application Tuna Desktop - basic functionality for creating tunnels. Maximum simple installation, configuration and launch. Even your accountant can handle it.

Step 1. Install the client

Выполните команду в PowerShell или установите вручную:

winget install --id yuccastream.tuna ; powershell
Ошибка при установке?

Диспетчер пакетов winget доступен на операционных системах Windows 10 и Windows 11, для более старых версий следует устанавливать tuna вручную.

To make sure the client is working, run the command:

tuna help

Step 2. Authorize

A token is required for the client to work. Register via the link and authorize the application. The token will be saved to the config file, or you can copy it on a separate page and specify it manually.

tuna login
Specify token manually
tuna config save-token <TOKEN>

Step 3. Use it

Everything is ready to get started.

Run tuna with the port and share the link with colleagues:

tuna http 8080
