[Kimchi-devel] Browser based Web Linux Console -- Serial Console

[Yu Xin Huo]

I downloaded the src and looked into the code of apps below:

I decide to use https://github.com/jcubic/jquery.terminal.
It supports command history, try http://terminal.jcubic.pl/#demo.

I think the license(Licensed under GNU LGPL Version 3 license 
<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html>) is ok.


I will create a javascript interpreter which talk with the kimchi web 
socket at server side.

Serial Console will requires login, let us discuss how the session(login 
token) to be reserved across browser, web socket, serial console.
