Ondevice SSH – Terminal emulator for devices without public IP address

In plain words

Ondevice SSH is a terminal emulator that enables remote access to devices without public IP addresses by tunneling traffic through websocket connections. It functions as a drop-in replacement for standard SSH, supporting commands, port forwarding, and file transfers via SFTP, SCP, and rsync. The tool eliminates the need for port forwarding setup, working wherever HTTPS is available. It's designed for developers and system administrators managing multiple remote devices.

  Public SSH Jump and Port Forwarding Server2021 · ▲22

  I've made a neat service to access SSH over NAT. Unlike ngrok and alternatives with registration, custom software, non-preserved random URLs and ports, this solution is just a remote SSH server which does not require anything more than an SSH client to both host and connect. Technically it allows to publish any service over SSH (web, proxy, any TCP port really), but only with SSH as a destination you'll preserve end-to-end encryption and won't allow my server to snoop on potentially unencrypted traffic. The service is mostly intended to give remote access to the device as fast as possible,…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
