sshx
sshx is a secure, web-based collaborative terminal platform that lets you share your command-line session with others by sending a unique browser link, enabling multiple participants to interact in real time with remote cursors and chat on an infinite canvas. It is fast, end-to-end encrypted, and lightweight, with a server written in Rust and support across macOS, Linux, and Windows, so users can install a single binary or use it directly in a browser for collaborative sessions. The interface supports arranging and resizing multiple terminals freely, live presence awareness, and ultra-fast mesh networking to connect from anywhere. sshx is ideal for remote pair programming, teaching, debugging, live demonstrations, and collaborative troubleshooting, providing secure access without requiring complex setups or traditional SSH clients, and it can be integrated into workflows, including CI/CD environments for remote debugging and shared terminal access.

JediTerm
JediTerm is a pure Java terminal widget designed to be easily embedded into an IDE. It supports terminal sessions for both SSH connections and local PTY on Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows. It is used by JetBrains IDEs such as PyCharm, IDEA, PhpStorm, WebStorm, AppCode, CLion, and Rider. Since version 2.5, JediTerm also provides a standalone terminal version distributed for Mac OS X. The name JediTerm comes from J for Java, “edi” as IDE reversed, and Term from terminal, while “Jedi” itself adds confidence and hope in the universe of thousands of different terminal implementations. The standalone JediTerm terminal can be run from sources by executing jediterm.sh or jediterm.bat. Gradle is used to build the project, which includes a terminal core library that provides a VT100-compatible terminal emulator and a Java Swing-based implementation of the terminal panel UI. It also includes a PTY library that uses Pty4J to enable local PTY terminal sessions.
