The original
sshx
A command-line tool that shares your terminal by link as a collaborative, end-to-end encrypted browser session.
Replacements
Listings that take over the same core job as sshx.
Upterm
An open-source tool for sharing a terminal session with others securely over SSH.
Upterm shares a terminal over SSH so guests join with a standard SSH client, and its server can run on your own infrastructure, but it lacks a browser canvas.
ttyd
A command-line tool that shares a terminal session over the web in a browser.
ttyd shares a terminal through a self-hosted web server, so you handle authentication and network access yourself instead of using a relay with end-to-end encryption.
Also worth comparing
These listings name sshx as their own alternative, so the relationship runs both ways.
WeTTY
A self-hosted terminal that runs in a web browser over HTTP or HTTPS.
sshx shares a terminal by link through a relay service with end-to-end encryption and collaboration, instead of a server you host yourself.
