About:
Sshx provides a secure, low-latency terminal sharing service that allows users to invite others to view or collaborate in their command-line session via a web browser. It establishes a direct, encrypted connection from your local machine to the sshx server, generating a unique shareable link for collaborators. This eliminates the need for complex VPN setups or SSH tunneling, making it ideal for quick debugging sessions, pair programming, or live demos.

Key Features:

Instant web-based access without installing client software for viewers
End-to-end encryption for secure session data transmission
Low latency performance optimized for real-time collaboration
Simple one-command setup for sharing terminal access

Use Cases:

Live debugging sessions where you need to show a colleague real-time terminal output
Pair programming sessions for remote teams
Giving temporary access to a server for technical support
Conducting live demos or tutorials from a command-line environment

Alternatives:

tmate – tmate creates terminal multiplexer sessions but requires SSH client setup for viewers; sshx provides instant browser access
Teleport – Teleport is a full-featured infrastructure access platform; sshx is simpler and focused on quick session sharing
Screen – Screen is a local terminal multiplexer; sshx enables remote web-based collaboration
