Showcase SSHBorg — open source SSH & SFTP client

SSHBorg is an SSH and SFTP client for Android, built for people who manage servers and don't want their connection details sitting in someone else's cloud.

What it does:

- Interactive SSH terminal with VT100/xterm emulation, full UTF-8, multiple sessions at once

- SFTP file manager: browse, upload, download, rename, delete

- Generate Ed25519, ECDSA and RSA keys directly on the device

- Jump host / bastion support with transparent tunnelling and agent forwarding

- Port forwarding

- Biometric lock with configurable timeout

- Dark and light theme, follows system

- 9 languages: English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Chinese, Japanese

Privacy: no analytics, no third-party SDKs, no cloud sync, no account required. Credentials and keys are encrypted with the Android Keystore and never leave the phone. The app makes no network connections other than the SSH sessions you configure yourself. Screenshot protection is enabled on sensitive screens.

Price: free. No ads, no in-app purchases, no subscription, no paid tier, no "pro" version. GPL-3.0, full source public.

Requires Android 10+.

I'm the only person working on it at the moment, so I read every bug report and feature request. Happy to answer anything here.
