TerminalLynx
TerminalLynx is a desktop SSH connection manager for system administrators, DevOps and SRE teams, developers, and homelab users who manage multiple remote servers. It organizes hosts with key:value tags and Smart Views, and provides keyboard search, a built-in terminal, SFTP, jump hosts, and local, remote, and SOCKS port forwarding. Saved command snippets can run on one or many hosts, with sudo support and team approval controls. The app imports SSH configuration and MobaXterm data and exports SSH configuration or JSON. Devices pair using a one-time code and synchronize directly over QUIC on a local network or through Tailscale or WireGuard. Shared team workspaces include role-based access and shared host-key verification. Connection data stays on users' devices, with keys stored in the operating system keychain; no vendor-hosted account or cloud sync service is required. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
