ServerDeck — Remote Server Workbench

macOS desktop app for SSH, terminal tabs, SFTP, and in-app updates.

Languages: English · 中文 · 日本語

ServerDeck is a macOS desktop app for remote server workflows, built with Tauri, React, TypeScript, and Rust. The product direction is inspired by tools like Termius, with an initial focus on SSH, terminal tabs, and SFTP browsing.

Current Scope

• Saved host management
• Multi-tab terminal sessions
• SFTP browser with local and remote panes
• File actions for upload, download, and delete
• Terminal theme and font size settings
• GitHub Release-based update check and download flow

This repository currently targets macOS first.

Repository Layout

• ServerDeck/ — application source
• ServerDeck/src/ — React UI, theme presets, API wrappers, and styles
• ServerDeck/src-tauri/ — Rust backend, Tauri config, icons, and desktop commands
• Product and technical planning docs are maintained in the knowledge base under 工作/serverdeck/
• docs/release-process.md — versioning and GitHub Release flow

Local Development

Requirements:

• Node.js 20+

Release & Updates

Releases are built from GitHub tags using GitHub Actions. The desktop app checks the latest GitHub Release on startup and shows an Update button only when a newer version is available.

Release steps are documented in:

• docs/release-process.md

Notes

• Current GitHub-hosted macOS builds may still require proper Apple signing and notarization for smooth installation on other machines.
