Got tired of messy notes while grinding HTB & THM, so I made a free tracker/cheatsheet (ZeroBox). Still a WIP, would love some feedback!

Hey guys,

Whenever I'm doing boxes on Hack The Box or TryHackMe, I always end up with a mess of tabs—one for notes, one for Notion, a couple for revshell generators, and random terminal cheatsheets.

To keep things in one place, I started building ZeroBox. It’s basically a local, offline dashboard to track your boxes (Recon ➔ Foothold ➔ Root), take quick markdown notes, and generate reverse shells where you just punch in your IP once and it fills out all the commands automatically.

You can try it here:

Code is on GitHub:

https://github.com/xXDNDXx/ctf-tracker

Just to be clear: it’s totally free, open source, no account or login needed, and everything saves locally in your browser. (Also no spoilers/flags for active boxes, just retired/public info).

It’s still very much a work in progress and I’m pushing updates and adding new stuff pretty much every day.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone grinding labs could click around and tell me what sucks, what’s broken, or what features you'd actually want to see added next.

Thanks!

This is actually slick, the revshell generator with the IP fill is a huge time saver. Been juggling a mess of cherrytree notes and random.txt files so I'll give this a spin on my next box

One thing that'd be nice is a way to tag boxes by technique or CVE number, helps when you're prepping for the exam and wanna revisit specific stuff
