GoTTY is a Go command line tool that turns any CLI program into a web application by serving it in a browser via a built-in web server. It streams the terminal over WebSocket so users can view (and optionally interact with) the running command remotely.
Use cases
- share a terminal session in a browser
- run htop or top from a web page
- give remote users read-only access to a CLI tool
- demo command-line tools over the web
- expose a terminal behind basic auth
- monitor long-running terminal processes remotely
When to choose
- you want to view or share a live terminal in a browser with a single command
- you need a lightweight self-hosted web terminal without deploying a full service
- you want optional write access and basic auth for remote CLI access
When to avoid
- you need a full multi-user SSH gateway or session recording
- you require strong security for untrusted users, since exposing a TTY over the web is risky
- you need a persistent remote shell manager like tmate or ttyd with more features
