tmate Makes Terminal Sharing Convenient for Linux Operations with Friends
Hello, this is Muno.
To a friend in Sendai, although I don't have much knowledge, I was able to teach Linux/Unix commands within the scope of what I know, and it was useful when I wanted to share some CLI operations together.
Attempted Video Calls
Last time, I was performing operations via video call, but the text was garbled, the lag was too severe, and it's quite difficult to describe command operations verbally.
So, I looked for something that could share an entire terminal session, and I found it.
Installation
You can install it with this.
sudo apt install tmate
Usage
That's all there is to it.
tmate
With just this, you'll get a WebUI terminal URL to share, and you'll also be able to use SSH.
While there are questions about its security, it's quite convenient for learning purposes.
After tmate displays the URL and other information, press Ctrl + C to enter the shared session, and to exit, just type exit.
How about everyone using it for learning, whether with friends or at work?
See you next time. Thank you.
