The go ssh packages are a popular choice: https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat https://github.com/zachlatta/sshtron https://github.com/quackduck/devzat https://github.com/donuts-are-good/shhhbb/ There's also a assembly library: https://2ton.com.au/sshtalk/ And for rust there's trush, and for python paramiko as mentioned. > expose a TUI/cli-app over ssh without actually caring about securing OpenSSH If you already have an app, see maybe: https://drewdevault.com/2019/09/02/Interactive-SSH-programs....

Show HN: Shhhbb, an SSH BBS

Hello all :) I made this BBS for fun and thought you all would enjoy it. It's not perfect, but it's been a fun exercise! see it: https://asciinema.org/a/Emg6SWrXMV6cehfQxrw1GRu75 try it: ssh -p 2223 shhhbb.com host it: https://github.com/donuts-are-good/shhhbb/releases/latest why? Every year I challenge myself in some new way, this year it is to push one project per week. You might recognize my static site generator [0] or my releaser for go [1] from previous posts as one of these weekly projects. If you want to join me in doing this, it's been a blast and I highly recommend it! Maybe we can chat on the bbs about it :) [0] - bearclaw tiny static generator - https://github.com/donuts-are-good/bearclaw [1] - release.sh release builder for go - https://github.com/donuts-are-good/bearclaw need: I'd love a few co-conspirators, or even som

e new friends for the bbs software or the bbs itself. A lofty nice-to-have goal is meeting a few other similarly motivated people to conspire with on a weekly basis. If that's you, drop me a line! goals: I have about half of an admin interface endpoint pushed up, which I'd like to finish. I realized mid-commit that I'd lacked some other material in a previous commit, and in pushing it up, I ended up pushing half the admin feature. Stay tuned for that. I'd also like to implement a feature where I surrender the socket to a new process so I can upgrade the binary without dropping all of the connected users. I'm not sure on the feasibility of this, but all the words fit together, so it'll be tried.
