I tunnel everything through webRTC. It's a bit exotic but it gets you a direct bidirectional data connection to the self hosted device. You can put all users' self hosted content through a single domain name & SSL cert or you could have subdomains automatically provisioned for each device.

I'm using this WebRTC method for 3D printers at https://tegapp.io

Can you provide more details on what software you're using for WebRTC tunneling?

Sure, right now I'm using a nodejs WebRTC datachannels implementation but there's an up and coming rust implementation which I'm quite excited to try:

- NodeJS DataChannels: https://github.com/node-webrtc/node-webrtc

- Rust DataChannels: https://github.com/lerouxrgd/datachannel-rs
