FEATURE: New CLI commands have been implemented for working with the `drive` share backend mode (part of the "zrok Drives" functionality). These commands include `zrok cp`, `zrok mkdir` `zrok mv`, `zrok ls`, and `zrok rm`. These are initial, minimal versions of these commands and very likely contain bugs and ergonomic annoyances. There is a guide available at (`docs/guides/drives/cli.md`) that explains how to work with these tools in detail (https://github.com/openziti/zrok/issues/438)

The peer-to-peer capabilities of `zrok` are an important property of the underlying [OpenZiti](https://docs.openziti.io/docs/learn/introduction/) network that `zrok` uses to provide connectivity between users and resources.
Creating `private` shares is easy and is accomplished using the `zrok share private` command. Run `zrok share private` to see the usage output and to further learn how to use the command.
## Backend Modes
The default backend mode is `proxy` which targets an HTTP URL that must be reachable by the backend.
```bash title="proxy example"
zrok share private 80
```
### HTTP Modes
<BackendHttp/>
### Networking Modes
- `tcpTunnel`, `udpTunnel` modes forward the data payload to the target server
- `socks` mode provides a SOCKS5 dynamic proxy on the private access bind port that tunnels TCP payloads to the share backend where they are forwarded to their destinations
- `vpn` mode provides a network layer tunnel between the private access and the share backend

# Public Shares
`zrok` supports `public` sharing for web-based (HTTP and HTTPS) resources. These resources are easily shared with the general internet through public access points.

As with `private` sharing, `public` sharing does not require you to open any firewall ports or otherwise compromise the security of your local environments. A `public` share goes away as soon as you terminate the `zrok share` command.
Using `public` shares is easy and is accomplished using the `zrok share public` command. Run `zrok share public` to see the command-line help and to learn how to use `public` shares.
## Backend Modes
The default backend mode is `proxy` which targets an HTTP URL that must be reachable by the backend.
```bash title="proxy example"
zrok share public 80
```
Public shares support any of zrok's HTTP modes.
