Sharing a terminal window via browser
09 Nov 2022This is more a today-I-remembered than a today-I-learned, but anyway: In video conferences I don’t like to share all of my screen but rather limit the sharing to individual windows. During a longer session today I found myself switching between sharing the browser window and a terminal several times. Solution: make the terminal a tab in the browser window using gotty.
The setup is easy:
gotty fish
(to start gotty with your choice of shell)- Open one of the URLs shown by gotty
- Done, you now have a shell inside the browser.
