What is it?

NyaTerm is a desktop remote terminal workspace for developers and sysadmins who work across servers, local shells, network devices and serial hardware. It runs SSH, local terminal, Telnet, serial, RDP and VNC sessions in tabs and split panes, and keeps related connections together in one window.

Beyond the terminal, it includes an SFTP file browser with a transfer queue, local editing with upload-back, SSH port forwarding and jump hosts, and TOTP/HOTP management with SSH auto-fill. Remote host panels cover resource, NVIDIA GPU and Ascend NPU monitoring, process management and Docker. Session configuration can be exported as encrypted backups or synced through WebDAV, S3-compatible storage or GitHub Gist.

The app is written in Rust on the GPUI framework and targets Windows, macOS and Linux. It also includes an AI assistant panel that generates commands, explains terminal output and runs approved multi-step actions in the active session.
