Show HN: Remux – an open-source tmux workspace designed for iPhone

I don't know much about the SSH this app uses (Citadel) which uses NIOSSH under the hood. I prefer using Mosh (https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh) for mobile apps where connectivity is often spotty. Does NIOSSH use a model that accounts for that?

NIOSSH itself doesn't include Mosh support, so adding it would require a mosh client. i didn't include it in the initial beta, because mosh isn't direct fit for tmux control mode, which requires an ordered raw byte stream. i'm planning to add mosh for standalone terminal sessions tho.

The app looks great, congratulations on the beta. Will continue testing it, but it connects well and works quite fast. I mainly use Termius, but the tmux support here is interesting.

Any way to see multiple panes at the same time?

thanks. there isn't a multi-pane view currently. i chose to show one pane at a time because of the available viewport on phones. you can switch between panes using the pane picker in the bottom sheet, but i'll consider adding that if there's enough demand.

I have been wanting for something like this, today I use a PWA running off Tailscale on my device for simplicity, but a native app would be nice.

What PWA are you currently using?

The amount of things mitchellh’s ghostty have enabled has been awesome

absolutely. ghostty is one of the projects i admire most, built by the engineer i look up to most.

I think this is a very cool effort. Sorry you got downvoted to oblivion (probably because of the "vibe-coded" feel of the website and website copy, etc.)

I'll try it out!

Question for you — what is your security model? It seems like this only supports local network access, is that correct?

bitwise42•37 minutes ago

thanks for giving it a try. it isn't limited to local networks. Remux connects directly over ssh to any machine reachable from the iPhone, including thru a private network such as tailscale.

Thank you for making it! Let me sponsor you on GitHub!
