sshx

sshx is a simple, terminal-based SSH connection manager written in Rust. It provides a TUI (Text User Interface) to manage your SSH connections, allowing you to add, edit, delete, and connect to servers quickly.

Features

• TUI Interface: built with ratatui for a smooth terminal experience.
• Manage Servers: Add, edit, and delete server configurations easily.
• One-Key Connection: Connect to your saved servers via standard ssh with a single keypress.
• Mosh Support: Launch mosh sessions directly from the interface.
• Key Management: Quickly copy your public key to a server using ssh-copy-id.
• Persistent Storage: Server configurations are saved in JSON format in your user configuration directory.
