This is exactly the gap I needed filled, a proper desktop panel that manages my Linux servers over SSH without installing anything on them. Is it open source?

Thank you...

Source code will be released day after tomorrow. I will add a comment in this thread itself, as well as update the site with a link to Github.

Looks like TRUENAS if it was single-prompted. Also how will it know what my server runs if I install nothing on it? will my server just expose all information? I'm a bit confused why this was a design choice.

I just heard of TrueNAS for the first time in my life... So, checked google images.. there is some similarity for sure.

It detects the server OS "after SSH authentication" by running a small POSIX-shell probe.

It will not automatically expose "all information". It can access only what the SSH account can access.

Thank you, I tried it, so far working great. One small thing I hit: when I tried connecting to a server I'd never connected to before, it refused at first with no clear error. I had to SSH in from my terminal once to accept the host key signature, and then it worked fine. Minor, but thought I'd pass it along. Great work!

Thank you for testing. I'll fix the issue.. tomorrow.. too tired as of now.

The macOS installer is not notarized, and while adding an exception in Gatekeeper exists, not everyone would be willing to do that, especially currently when even the app source is unavailable.

Apple charges $99/year to be able to notarize a app. Plus, it has one years long bug that any random Apple developer account can get stuck in, and then, you just can't get it notarized. Have a look at this thread: https://github.com/electron/notarize/issues/205

I do agree that notarizing it would make installing much easier.

Also, source code is coming day after tomorrow.
