ttyd: Command-Line Terminal Sharings

A command-line tool that turns your terminal into a simple web server, making it accessible via a web browser for seamless terminal sharing and collaboration.

What is Ttyd?

ttyd is an open-source command-line application that enables users to share terminal sessions through a web browser interface. It essentially turns a terminal into a simple web server, making it accessible over HTTP or HTTPS.

Some key features and benefits of ttyd include:

• Allows multiple users to connect to the same terminal via a web browser, enabling collaboration.
• Terminals can be accessed remotely from any device with a web browser, like phones, tablets, or computers.
• Sessions are encrypted with SSL/TLS for security.
• Lightweight and fast, with very low resource usage.
• Setup only requires installing ttyd on the server - no other dependencies needed.
• Open source and available on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, and Docker.

ttyd is often used by developers, system administrators, and DevOps engineers to inspect servers, debug issues, collaborate with team members, run demos, or simply access the terminal conveniently from a browser. It can be set up with reverse proxies like Nginx for added security and features as well.
