About:
Tsui is a terminal-based user interface (TUI) designed to simplify the management and observation of Tailscale networks. It provides an interactive dashboard for configuring nodes, viewing network maps, and monitoring connection status without leaving the command line. This tool is ideal for system administrators and developers who need to manage their mesh VPN directly from a terminal environment.

Key Features:

Interactive node management and inspection
Real-time network status and connection monitoring
Streamlined configuration of ACLs and routes
Keyboard-driven interface for efficiency

Use Cases:

Managing a Tailscale network on headless servers via SSH
Quickly diagnosing connectivity issues in a mesh VPN
Configuring exit nodes and subnet routers from the terminal

Alternatives:

tailscale-cli – The official CLI is scriptable, while Tsui offers a visual, interactive dashboard for easier manual management.
Headscale – Headscale is a self-hosted control plane; Tsui is a client-side UI that connects to any Tailscale-compatible network.
