That's called forward auth - or proxy auth You can do the same thing - with the added burden of actually having to set it up once ... After you set it up, it's however just as trivial to add new systems like with this linked example. I got pretty much everything I'm self-hosting like that via keycloak (which itself let's me do social with via GitHub and Google etc pp) and a very similar nginx config like it's shown i…
I think running and managing and possibly misconfiguring a keycloak java monolith would be exactly what I'd want to avoid which is why it's cool that they offer this.
There are a lot other identity providers around you can pick from, I merely mentioned it as I personally use it, as it's so easy to run and integrate with social auth - and comes with features such as simple password-less auth.
The forward auth/proxy auth is not a keycloak feature, it's a proxy feature, which just need some identity provider. If you look for the mentioned term via Google or AI/llm you will find multiple options, some of which are as easy to setup as a simple docker run cmd with an open port

It is showing non-stop loading blink but nothing happens.
And cannot open keyboard if that is needed. It is like big CTA but does not do anything.
Very strange landing page for maybe cool product.

Hello, an exe.dev person here. There are some very early docs, exe.dev/docs (which are also accessible over ssh once you ssh in). There is a lot more to come, very early days, please bear with us. I was not expecting to see it here today.
I have played with it and it's so easy get started with that now I want a quick-project idea as an excuse to use it! I'm sure you've thought of this, but: lots of people have some amount of 'free' (or really: zero incremental cost to users) access to some coding chat tool through a subscription or free allowance like Google's. If you wanted to let those programs access your custom tools (browser!) and docs about the…
When you create a new exe.dev VM, you can tell Shelley what it's for. I've had fun results from, "surprise me".
Also, telling Shelley to get inspiration from the VM name can be fun.

#85I'd be interested if I knew who was behind the company and could reasonably trust that I wasn't going to get my data stolen etc.
The devs are long time Go and Tailscale hackers, and have earned my trust several times over. They will earn yours too, I bet.

Not a mobile issue. I am on desktop and had no idea what this service was because nothing on the initial UI explained what we were looking at. I went and double-checked when people here were talking about pricing and VMs. From the home page, I figured it was some text-based game or experiment and closed the page.
It looks like some people who work there are watching this thread, so to them I say: You have got to explain what this is, not just say "the disk persists..." and expect people to dig deeper. Most aren't that curious.

#87This seems to be a honeypot for associating your SSH public key with other identifying details.
It is a paid service, delivering a valuable developer tool, and which indeed uses ssh keys for authentication.
So, exactly what you said, but for the benefit of the user, and for the profit of the company, by offering an excellent product.
(I am a happy customer of their previous product, Sketch.dev.)

Hardly, you can use .ssh/config to configure an SSH key just for this service.
Re: Exe.dev
#89Is that the OpenBSD logo they're using?!
No, it's a reference to the OpenSSH one.

Agree, I finally found information via
Homepage -> blog -> docs -> "all docs" button:
Which has an about and pricing etc.
That is very counterintuitive to just find out what this is.
