SSH through browser? (alien.top)

Just to avoid advice I'm already aware of: I don't want to use a VPN, nor a cloudflare tunnel.

I want to self host, ideally docker compatible, piece of software which would utilize ssh port 22 on the local network to access devices on that LAN, and then forward the information through a reverse proxy and securely through https, into my browser window, where I can interact with it from anywhere. I know guacamole, but it seems a bit cluttered with functionality I don't need - RDP and VNC.

Why not simply search this sub? The answers to this question are always the same.

https://github.com/stuicey/SSHy might be of interest - do you want to be at some other location and SSH to your home server through a browser, or use a browser-based SSH client to contact third party servers?

Looks pretty nice, though I'd really appreciate being able to create connection profiles, filling the IP, username, and password, and then connecting just by selecting that profile. Guacamole does that too.

I've used https://github.com/butlerx/wetty for this. I don't know if it has all the features you're looking for, I just have it set up simple.

Same here. Behind nginx on custom port.

I used to use sstunnel over ssh. So basically I’d run ssh just for the link, then run sstunnel which set up a SOCKS proxy. This was 10 years ago.

You can set up a cloudflare tunnel. It allows access through web browser AND proper ssh installing cloudflared, all without exposing port 22 over the internet. And you can event set up oAuth to go with it.

Maybe https://github.com/nirui/sshwifty is what you are looking for you can set the password in the url and you also can store the connections
