Shield CLI
The browser-first gateway to your SSH, RDP, VNC & databases.
What it does
A browser-first internal service gateway. One binary, one command — SSH, remote desktop, database admin, web apps — all in your browser via HTML5. No VPN. No client install. No complex setup. shield ssh 10.0.0.5 → terminal in browser shield rdp 10.0.0.5 → Windows desktop in browser shield mysql 10.0.0.20 → DB admin in browser Unlike ngrok/frp, it renders everything in the browser.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
