## Running with the SSH tunnel

See our FAQ on [ssh
tunnel](https://cs.wellesley.edu/~cs304/top/FAQ.html#off-campus-flask). Do
the following in a **local** shell (*not* within VS Code):

```shell
ssh -L 8080:localhost:8299 cs304guest@cs
```

Within VS Code, start the app:

```shell
source cs304/venv/bin/activate
cd ~/cs304/flask2
python example4.py
```

Then, access it in your browser as <a target="_blank" href="localhost:8080">localhost:8080</a>

You can do those 3 steps every single time:

1. set up SSH tunnel using terminal on local machine
1. start the app on Tempest via VS Code
1. access the app in the browser at localhost:8080

That should pretty much always work, on-campus or off-campus (with the
exception of CAS).

On-campus or with the VPN, you can skip the SSH tunnel and use the
`http://149.130.15.5:port/` route that Flask shows you.
