From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nice tool. What inspired you to make it?
Thanks. Personally i always wanted a FOSS alternative to Termius on desktop.
A unified UI that allows connecting to multiple servers easily.
Any highlights from the development process? Any particular complication with tooling/libraries used or anything that went better/faster than expected?
Well initially I started the project with PyQt, but surprisingly it turned a nightmare when I tried to integrate a proper terminal. With GTK and vte it was a breeze. Currently I'm porting the app to libadwaita for a more polished, modern look.
