Sshwifty is a self-hosted web application that provides SSH and Telnet client access directly from a browser. It ships as prebuilt executables or a Docker container and serves a web-based terminal UI.

Use cases

• access ssh servers from a web browser
• self-hosted web ssh client
• connect to telnet hosts via browser
• ssh into machines without installing a client
• provide browser-based terminal access behind a reverse proxy

When to choose

• you need SSH/Telnet access from devices where you can't install native clients
• you want a self-hosted, Docker-deployable web terminal
• you want to centralize remote shell access behind a reverse proxy with TLS

When to avoid

• you need advanced SSH features like agent forwarding, port forwarding, or SFTP
• you prefer a native terminal emulator with local key management
• you don't want to run a server-side component that holds SSH connections
