Xyra - Visual Desktop for Linux VPS (Windows Client)
Source: Dev.to
Overview
Take full control of your Linux VPS with a Windows visual desktop!
Xyra is a lightweight desktop‑style dashboard designed for VPS users who mainly work through the console and FTP. Instead of managing files only through terminal commands or external tools, Xyra provides a visual desktop environment for browsing, editing, uploading, and organizing server files more comfortably.
The goal of this project is not to replace the terminal, but to make remote server management more intuitive and visually accessible—especially for developers who prefer a desktop‑like workflow while still working on a VPS.
Features
- Visual file management with drag‑and‑drop uploads
- Quick text editing of server files
- Persistent folder and icon layout
- SSH tool integration (PuTTY / Termius)
- Background customization and intuitive interface
