How to Test WorkOS Webhooks Locally with ngrok

This tutorial explains how to configure and validate WorkOS webhooks from a development machine using ngrok's secure, public URLs. Ngrok is a tool that exposes local servers behind NATs and firewalls to the public internet over secure tunnels. It allows users to run personal cloud services from home, test websites without deploying, and build and run webhook consumers on their development machine. The tutorial demonstrates how to set up ngrok for consuming WorkOS webhooks by creating a secure public URL with ngrok, creating a WorkOS webhook, building a route in the application to accept webhooks, and testing the configuration.
