The BEST way to access Immich from anywhere! | Tailscale + Cloudflare

Access and sync Immich from anywhere without opening any ports to your computer or server by using Tailscale and/or Cloudflare.

Tailscale is a must have service for syncing files of any size and once you connect it on your mobile device you can forget about it. This creates a mesh vpn tunnel between your device and your Immich server.

Clouflare tunnel is another amazing service that allows you to host your Immich application online with a public facing domain without opening ports on your computer or server and can be run in another docker container. I also utilize Zero trust to ensure no one can access my public facing website except the email addresses I authorize.

In this video I will show you how to set up both on a Windows computer running Docker Desktop so that you can have the best of both worlds.
