Wisp

Wisp is a desktop client for the servers you work with. Open a terminal, browse and transfer files, or view a remote screen, all in one window, with your saved connections one click away.

What it connects to

Kind	Protocols
Terminal	SSH, with tabs and split panes
Files	SFTP, FTP and FTPS, S3-compatible storage
Remote screen	VNC

What it does

• Saved profiles and groups with custom icons. Import from your ~/.ssh/config or from PuTTY .ppk key files.
• File browser for SFTP with uploads and downloads.
• Tunnels: local, remote and dynamic (SOCKS) port forwarding, plus jump hosts.
• Host key checking: the first time you connect, Wisp asks whether you trust the server's key, and it warns you if that key ever changes.
• Encrypted vault for passwords, keys and other secrets, and a themeable appearance.

Download

Windows (installer), macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux (AppImage, deb and rpm) from the latest release on GitHub. Wisp tells you when a new version is available and can install it for you.

Private by design

Wisp has no account, no analytics and no telemetry. It connects only to the servers you add.

Source code

The source code is public on GitHub. Wisp is built by one person, so bug reports and contributions are welcome, and patience is appreciated.
