Tailscale provides a secure and straightforward approach to effortlessly make your Home Assistant instance available on the internet, without the complexities of router settings and VPN configuration.

I had to add this:

http:
  use_x_forwarded_for: true
  trusted_proxies:
    - 127.0.0.1

to config, but overall it’s very useful article.

    You have to use tailscale VPN for this, right? The article explains how to setup access to HA via the internet, without using tailscale client.

    Anyway, the exit node thing is indeed very nice.

      I’ve just clicked into the article and no, it’s set up the same way as I have, except I set HA as an exit node in the Tailscale console.
