A real SSH client with full PTY support that works the same way in the browser, on desktop and on mobile, so engineers stop juggling PuTTY on one device and a separate mobile app.

What to know
How it works
A real SSH client with full PTY support, resize and keepalive handling, that works the same way in the browser, on desktop (Electron), and on Android/iOS, connecting via WebSocket relay or direct connection.
What's different
Host credentials and identity keys are encrypted at rest with XChaCha20-Poly1305 (libsodium) rather than stored in plaintext, and it replaces juggling separate tools (PuTTY plus a mobile app) with one client.
Best for
Engineers who connect to remote servers from more than one device and want the same SSH experience everywhere.
