Q. Any chance this would work from a web-assembly app?

[kuiperzone]

I'm new to web-assembly, but I think I know what the answer might be.

My understanding is that only HTTPS and WebSockets are permissible from a wasm app. So SSH.NET isn't going to fly on this one.

Am I mistaken?

Any thoughts on making an SSH connection from a web-assembly running in a browser?

[Rob-Hague]

My understanding is the same as yours, that raw sockets are not permitted in the browser. The library uses sockets for TCP, which SSH uses for transport.

As far as I know, it is not strictly required that SSH sits on top of TCP, so maybe it could be implemented on top of WebSockets? I don't know.

I'm thinking about using websock and having a reverse proxy on the server. I'm still not sure whether I can use SSH.NET on the websock client side.
