This lets you either:

- start a temporary [Quick tunnel](/tunnel/setup/#quick-tunnels-development) with a random `*.trycloudflare.com` hostname, or
- use an existing [named tunnel](/tunnel/setup/#create-a-tunnel) for a stable hostname and to restrict access with Cloudflare Access.

Let's link to https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/access-controls/ for Access to make sure people understand how to protect these endpoints without searching.

nit: We don't show 'press t + enter` to open a tunnel in this gif (presumably because we are running a pre-release) but it would be great to show it so it's clearer what's happening.

Updated the demo gif to include a press t + enter hint. This is running off a pre-release and should be released either later today or Monday.
