A desktop app for managing Linux servers over SSH. Connect to a server and you get a live dashboard, a multi-tab terminal, an SFTP file browser with a built-in editor, plus process, cron and snippet management — all in one window.

Built with Tauri, React and a Node.js sidecar that handles the SSH/SFTP heavy lifting.

• Dashboard — live CPU, memory, disk and network metrics, uptime, and systemd service status
• Terminal — full xterm.js terminal with multiple tabs and one-click snippets
• Files — browse the remote filesystem, drag & drop uploads, edit files in place with CodeMirror
• Processes — list, filter and kill processes
• Cron — view, create and edit scheduled jobs, with log viewing
• Snippets — save frequently used commands and run them with a click

Passwords never touch disk in plain text — they go into the OS credential vault (Windows Credential Manager, GNOME Keyring, macOS Keychain). Private keys are read only at connection time; only their path is stored. Nothing is sent anywhere except your servers.

You'll need Node.js 18+, Rust (rustup) and your platform's Tauri build tools.

git clone https://github.com/ricardoborges/Nautilus.git
cd Nautilus
npm install
cd backend && npm install && cd ..

npm run tauri:dev

To build installers for your platform:

Output lands in src-tauri/target/release/bundle/ (.msi, .deb/.AppImage or .dmg, depending on the OS you build on).

The Tauri shell launches a packaged Node.js backend as a sidecar. The React frontend talks to it over local HTTP, and the backend manages the SSH/SFTP sessions with ssh2. Connections and snippets are stored as JSON in the app data directory; credentials go to the system vault via keytar.

The target server just needs SSH plus the usual tools (ps, free, df, systemctl...) for the dashboard and process views to work.
