### A flexible connection manager and remote file explorer
|
|
|
|
X-Pipe is a brand-new type of connection manager and remote file explorer that works by only interacting with established command-line
|
|
tools on local and remote shell connections.
|
|
This approach makes it much more flexible as it doesn't have to deal with file system APIs or remote file handling
|
|
protocols at all.
|
|
|
|
It currently supports:
|
|
- Containers located on any host, e.g. [docker](https://www.docker.com/) or [LXD](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/introduction/) container instances
|
|
- [SSH](https://www.ssh.com/academy/ssh/protocol) connections
|
|
- [Windows Subsystem for Linux](https://ubuntu.com/wsl) instances located on any host
|
|
- [Powershell Remote Sessions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/learn/remoting/running-remote-commands?view=powershell-7.3)
|
|
- Any other custom remote connection methods that works through the command-line
|
|
- Arbitrary types of proxies to establish connections
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, X-Pipe integrates with your existing tools and workflows
|
|
by outsourcing as many tasks as possible to your favourite
|
|
text/code editors, terminals, shells, command-line tools and more.
|
|
The platform is designed to be extensible, allowing anyone
|
|
to implement custom functionality through extensions.
