ttyd is a command-line tool that shares a terminal session through a web browser. It runs on Unix-like systems and Windows, making it useful for remote administration, browser-based development environments, demos, lab machines, and containerized tools. The project is built on libuv and WebGL2 to provide a responsive browser terminal experience. It can run custom commands with options, support authentication, and expose shell access over HTTP or HTTPS. ttyd also includes practical terminal features such as CJK and IME input, ZMODEM and trzsz file transfer, Sixel image output, SSL support, and reverse proxy compatibility. It is best suited for users who want a lightweight way to access command-line programs from any modern browser.
