TermCraft
A free, open-source terminal and session manager for network engineers and anyone who lives on remote machines. SSH, Telnet, serial, TFTP, SFTP, VNC, RDP and Reticulum in one place.
What it is
TermCraft puts every kind of connection you use in one window: SSH2, Telnet, Rlogin, serial consoles, raw TCP and local shells, plus a built-in VNC viewer and RDP launching. It runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, and it’s written in Rust with Tauri.
Built for the rack
- Run commands on many sessions. Pick sessions or a whole folder, enter
commands, and TermCraft runs them in the background, 1 to 20 at a time,
saving each device’s output to its own file. It answers Telnet and serial
logins and handles
--More--pagers for every major vendor. Good for audits, config backups andshow versionacross a site. - TFTP server for IOS and firmware images and config backups. It shows
the exact
copy tftp://…command to type on the device. - ZMODEM, YMODEM and XMODEM over any tab, for bootloaders like U-Boot
loadyand ROMMONxmodem. - Button bars, one set per device type:
show run,show vlan,wr mema click away. - Jump hosts, port forwarding and SOCKS, with SSH tunnels for VNC and RDP.
Reticulum built in
Turn it on and devices on a Reticulum mesh are
reached by destination hash instead of IP: rnsh sessions in the Session
Manager, file transfer with rncp, and rnx, rnprobe, rnpath and
rnstatus under Tools. The same workflow works over LoRa as over Ethernet.
Everything else
- Session Manager with folders, filtering, drag and drop, and import from
~/.ssh/config. - Layouts: tabs, stacked, side by side or grid.
- Themes: Catppuccin, Nord, Solarized, Gruvbox, Tokyo Night and more, each with Light, Dark or Auto.
- Secure by default: host-key verification, logins encrypted in your OS keychain, and a sandboxed UI.
