Microproxy is a simple and lightweight HTTP/HTTPS proxy server which can be used to intercept and analyze network traffic. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Microproxy on a Windows 11 system.
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that you have the following requirements:
To begin, open the Command Prompt or PowerShell as an Administrator and run the following command to clone the Microproxy repository:
git clone https://github.com/thekvs/microproxy.git
This will create a local copy of the repository on your system.
Navigate to the cloned directory by running the following command:
cd microproxy
Then, install the required dependencies using the following command:
npm install
This command will install all the required dependencies listed in the package.json
.
Now, to start the Microproxy server, run the following command:
npm start
This will start the Microproxy server and listen on port 8080
by default.
To verify that Microproxy is installed correctly and working, open a web browser and enter the URL http://localhost:8080
in the address bar. If Microproxy is running correctly, you should see a "Welcome to Microproxy!" message displayed in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Microproxy on your Windows 11 system. You can now start using it to intercept and analyze HTTP/HTTPS requests in your network traffic.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
