A TUI file explorer for SSH servers that lets you browse, edit, and download files remotely with parallel directory traversal.
FileSSH is a terminal-based file explorer for SSH servers that allows users to browse, edit, and manage files on remote systems directly from their local terminal. It solves the problem of cumbersome remote file management by providing a visual interface with features like parallel directory downloads and in-place editing.
System administrators, DevOps engineers, and developers who frequently work with remote servers via SSH and need an efficient way to manage files without leaving the terminal.
Developers choose FileSSH for its fast parallel directory traversal, intuitive TUI interface, and ability to edit files in-place, making remote file management more convenient than traditional command-line tools like scp or manual SSH sessions.
