Connect to a custom SSH chat server accessible from terminals, phones, and any platform with SSH. Features rooms, markdown support, games, and Slack integration.

Devzat is a custom SSH server that replaces the traditional shell prompt with an interactive chat experience. Instead of accessing a remote shell, you connect via SSH and join a community chat room—making it accessible from any device with an SSH client, including phones and tablets.

Key Features:

  • Universal Access: Connect from any platform with SSH installed—Linux, macOS, Windows, and mobile devices
  • Multiple Rooms: Organize conversations with room support using the cd command to switch between different chat spaces
  • Rich Formatting: Full markdown support including tables, headers, italics, and code syntax highlighting with multiple themes
  • Direct Messaging: Send private messages to other users or maintain one-on-one conversations
  • Built-in Games: Play Tic Tac Toe and Hangman directly in chat
  • Timezone Support: Set your timezone to see message timestamps in your local time
  • Emoji Support: Use Slack-style emoji replacements like :rocket: → 🚀
  • Slack Bridge: Integrate with Slack workspaces to bridge messages between platforms
  • Self-Hosting: Deploy your own instance with simple setup using Go
  • Plugin API: Extend functionality with custom integrations for Discord, Twitter, and other services

Simply run ssh devzat.hackclub.com to get started, or use ssh [email protected] to set your display name on first login. If you're behind a firewall, port 443 is available as an alternative.
