Nexus Terminal is a modern web-based SSH/RDP/VNC client with a self-hosted Node.js backend and an optional standalone desktop app. It offers multi-tab terminal sessions, SFTP with Monaco-based file editing, Docker container management, 2FA/captcha login security, IP allowlisting, and audit logging.

Use cases

• manage ssh servers from a browser
• self-hosted web ssh client
• access rdp and vnc desktops over the web
• edit remote files with sftp and a code editor
• audit who ran commands on my servers
• secure ssh web access with 2fa and ip allowlist
• manage docker containers from a terminal panel

When to choose

• you want a browser-based, self-hosted alternative to Termius or PuTTY
• you need SSH plus RDP/VNC and SFTP in one interface
• team access control, audit logs, and login security matter
• you want a lightweight Node.js backend deployable via Docker

When to avoid

• you need only a local terminal emulator without a server component
• you require ARM support out of the box (compatibility is not guaranteed)
• you need enterprise-grade identity federation like SSO/LDAP
