TermPair is a Rust-based tool that lets you share and control a terminal from a browser with end-to-end encryption. A single static binary provides the server, client, and web frontend, relaying encrypted terminal I/O between a PTY and connected browsers.

Use cases

• share my terminal with a colleague in their browser
• pair program remotely over the terminal
• let someone watch my terminal session live
• debug a remote machine with a friend assisting
• run a read-only terminal demo for an audience
• securely share a terminal without exposing data to the server

When to choose

• you need zero-knowledge, end-to-end encrypted terminal sharing
• you want a single dependency-free binary that works on Linux, macOS, and Windows
• you want viewers to optionally type in your terminal or stay read-only

When to avoid

• you need full remote desktop or GUI sharing rather than a TTY
• you need persistent session recording or playback rather than live sharing
• you require fine-grained per-user access control beyond link-based access
