Every CLI on Terminalwire can have an installation instructions page, which is one less thing you have to worry about.
Here’s what @any_cable’s CLI page looks like in the @terminalwire directory 🤩
I kinda want to add support for logos so these pages take on more of the look and feel of the companies shipping TUIs.

So cool to see @OpenGraphPlus being used by @terminalwire for the ogplus CLI that's implemented in Terminalwire.

Explaining how @terminalwire works is tough, so I now have a "How it works" page that hopefully conveys how it streams a CLI from the server to a client.
Thoughts?
Lots of animated CLI on this page and data flowing over websockets.

Yup, I now work with Rails, Ruby, Phoenix, & Elixir.
The reason I did a protocol overhaul for @terminalwire v2 protocol is because I made the Elixir integration awesome.
So yeah, here’s the Elixir ↔ Terminalwire integration.
If I was smart I’d choose popular frameworks first, but I prefer high leverage.

This looks so much better and actually kinda explains how Terminalwire streams a terminal from a server.
terminalwire.com/how-it-work…
Kind of a weird inversion, but it works really well when you think about it.
Even your AI will agree this is a great approach.
Speed, broader platform support, and another platform 👀
Check out how much faster @terminalwire v2 looks in the terminal.
Here's the new Go client talking to anycable-pro licensing with the v1 protocol. Looks like somebody is typing to screen.
ogplus & terminalwire servers run v2, which prints to users clients so much faster.
I’ve got some big updates I’ve been cooking for the past few weeks that I’ll be talking about on here over the next few weeks.
First Bug Thing ™: the client was rewritten from Ruby to GoLang. It’s much faster, runs on windows, Mac, and Linux, and automatically updates.
Everybody, thank @kieranklaassen for Terminalwire no longer needing `sudo` to install!
I now install to ~/.terminalwire instead of /opt/terminalwire, which dramatically reduces the friction of the `curl` installer.
That makes it much easier for humans & AI to use me.

Guess what @OpenGraphPlus uses for its `ogplus` CLI?
TERMINALWIRE!
It's used to create sites, manage caches, generate meta data tags, and other stuff that web developers find handy.
My first end-to-end demo of og.plus! You can finally get a sense for how it will integrate into websites to generate an Open Graph image per page, and you can control it all with CSS, meta tags, and HTML cache headers.
Watch a Terminalwire CLI get built for @CoraComputer in under two hours 💅💅
Welcome to our live show! xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1dRJZaZqW…
Ya’ll are about to see a CLI launched in record time.
The crazier thing though will be watching how quickly @aviflombaum will crank through iterations of the CLI. PRs will come through to add CLI features and the installed software will require zero updates.

OMG I JUST THOUGHT OF THE BEST APP IDEA YOU ALL ARE GOING TO LOVE IT!
DNSassy.com - a single place to manage your DNS for your domains no matter provider. 1 clean interface to add entries, edit, etc. And it will have a CLI via @terminalwire
And of course, it's O'Sassy

Who wants a CLI for Fizzy?
Tell me what commands you want in the replies & I'll whip up a @terminalwire demo over the next few days and show how easy it is to ship a CLI in Rails apps.
Then I'll plug the CLI into an LLM and show why you should ship a CLI to integrate with AI
Fizzy is live! Our modern, beautiful spin on kanban for tracking just about anything. Nothing revolutionary, but just right, just nice. And we're launching our freemium SaaS version alongside an O'Saasy-licensed codebase for you to run it yourself too! fizzy.do

Somebody should build this in a Rails app with @terminalwire and @TonsOfFun111’s ActiveAgent or @paolino’s RubyLLM.
CLI would stream from serve, be backed with those LLM libraries, and your app logic/billing would be in the middle.
Fuck it - Im going to stop reverse engineering claude code and move to opencode by @thdxr - anything ive done to Claude Code, i can easily recreate with actual apis and hooks to accomplish it with less fragility and more flexibility. Can even just scrape claudes tools verbatim

I should talk more about @terminalwire now that Omarachy is a thing.
🤔
What if you could build a CLI for your Rails app that lives on your server and is part of your Rails monolith?
When you deploy a feature, the changes are immediately streamed to your user.

One of the nice things about open-sourcing @terminalwire is I can write project proposals on Github when people ask me a question about a feature that isn't fully built-out yet.
Then:
1. I will get paid to build it or
2. Somebody else builds it and it's contributed back

Terminalwire is open source!
I finally got to a point with the stack where I could slow down and think through which license would be best and landed on AGPL.
Link to the article and repo are in the thread🧵👇

Any SaaS company owners want this as part of their kit?
@terminalwire can be setup to send your SaaS's web hook requests through a tunnel to a local dev's machine.
e.g. imagine if @clickfunnels had a `funnels dev -p 3000` and webhooks are sent to a devs local web server.
Replying to @ShopifyDevs
if your workflow looks like this:
cloudflare tunnel → rate limits
ngrok setup → firewall blocks
tunnel errors → restart dev server
run shopify app dev --use-localhost and thank us later 😉

Build a two-step developer onboarding experience!
In this demo I show how SaaS, like @ModernTreasury, could use @terminalwire to streamline their developer onboarding, in this case 9 steps to 2.
