Web-Based Terminal − Terminal Emulator used with web based technologies, usually written in JavaScript or in language that is compiled to JavaScript.

Web Terminal emulators can be written with JavaScript libraries like xterm.js[1] or jQuery Terminal[2].

Web-based terminal can run as Google Chrome extension.[3]

Examples

  • Hyper based on xterm.js[4]
  • Web-Console is using jQuery Terminal[5]
  • VSCode have built in terminal that uses xterm.js[1]

TODO

There are also JavaScript libraries that allow one to write a terminal-like website. Examples are jQuery Terminal[6] and XTerm.js.[7]

  • Because of intermittent network connections with a connection timeouts.[8] Mosh by MIT can be a better solution[9] It utilizes SSH at first then UDP from thereon.[10]
