Electerm is a multi-protocol terminal emulator and remote connection manager designed as a cross-platform remote client for Linux, macOS, and Windows. It serves as a unified workspace for remote server administration, supporting SSH, Telnet, Serial, and various remote desktop protocols such as RDP and VNC in a single interface.
The project distinguishes itself by integrating AI assistants to suggest commands, write scripts, and explain console output. It also features a visual SFTP file manager for browsing and editing remote files, alongside the ability to broadcast a single input stream to multiple active terminal sessions simultaneously for synchronized administration.
Broad capabilities include secure host authentication via public keys, SSH tunneling for network traffic routing, and the automation of repetitive workflows through quick command sequences and batch operation execution. The application also supports session management via a centralized bookmark system and deep link session launching.
The application is wrapped in an Electron-based desktop shell and provides a local HTTP server interface to allow external tools and AI assistants to control the session.
