## Documentation

railtail is a HTTP/TCP proxy for Railway workloads connecting to Tailscale
nodes. It listens on a local address and forwards traffic it receives on
the local address to a target Tailscale node address.

📣 This is a workaround until there are [full VMs available in Railway](https://help.railway.com/feedback/full-unix-v-ms-44eef294). Please upvote the thread if you want this feature!
