Zync
Local-first SSH workspace - local shells and remote servers
An open-source, local-first SSH workspace that brings your terminal, SSH, SFTP, port forwarding, encrypted vault, snippets, and more into one place. Free to use with no feature paywalls and optional encrypted backups to your own Google Drive.
The idea started pretty simply: I wanted an SSH workspace with a better and less complicated UX, without having basic features hidden behind subscriptions or feature paywalls. I also wanted it to be local-first, so your workspace stays on your machine instead of requiring a cloud account.
Zync is a desktop SSH workspace, currently includes:
• Local terminal (PowerShell, CMD, WSL, Bash, etc.) • SSH sessions • SFTP file manager • Port forwarding • Encrypted local vault for credentials • Optional encrypted backups to your own Google Drive • Snippets and command palette • Themes and plugins • AI agent mode BYOK (still being polished)
It's open source (MIT), free to use, and local-first.
Excited to hear what you think, especially if you regularly work with terminals and remote servers. Any feedback or feature requests are very welcome! 🙌
