This project is officially supported by GL.iNet.

rtty is a powerful remote terminal solution composed of clients and a server.

Client Implementations:

• C Client: Ultra-lightweight, designed for embedded Linux and resource-constrained devices.
• Go Client: Easy cross-platform compilation, suitable for rapid integration and cloud-native/container environments.

The server is implemented in Go, with a modern frontend built using Vue.

You can access your device from anywhere via a web browser, and manage devices using unique device IDs.

rtty is ideal for remote maintenance and management of large-scale distributed Linux devices, making it a great choice for enterprise operations.
