Ask HN: Remote desktop and SSH terminal SaaS

I am researching ways to create remote desktops and ssh terminals and have them exposed through a web application.Software as Apache Guacamole[1], or Xterm.js[2] can be used to build such a solution, but I am wondering whether there is any SaaS in this space that provides this. Are you aware of anything in this space?[1] https://guacamole.apache.org/ [2] https://xterm.js

Thanks, I've opened an issue so we can confirm and provide a fix.
Sure, very soon we'll have the frontend code uploaded on a separate repository, with instructions and documentation. For example there's lot of work on the video.js player that we'd like to make available.
Thanks for these suggestions, once we start releasing documentation for developers and content as architecture diagrams, extending the software will be greatly facilitated for all!
Hi, can you share the version and what browser you use? We have tested against different sets of browsers but it seems that more testing need be done. Thanks

Cheers!

Ask HN: Modern alternatives to Turn.js?

I'd like to create a flip book with audio, found Turn.js which is open source and awesome. However development seems to be frozen 5 years ago. I'd like to avoid commercial or freemium services so it would be great if there's another option here (ideally open source).

Ask HN: Securely store sensitive data in the DB?

I am designing an information system and one of the requirements is to keep sensitive data encrypted in the database, with a possible intruder being unable to decrypt them. Encrypting everything in the application with a key and then storing to the database is unacceptable, since all it does is add a little difficulty for an intruder -once he gets the key he gets the data too.Passwords are kept...
