The remote file browser for professionals

XPipe is a brand-new type of remote file browser that works by interacting with your installed command-line programs via stdout, stderr, and stdin to handle local and remote shell connections. This approach makes it much more flexible as it doesn't have to deal with any file system APIs, remote file handling protocols, or libraries at all as that part is delegated to your programs.

It comes with all file management features you would expect plus a dedicated remote connection hub to organize and open remote shell connections to your entire infrastructure.

XPipe fully integrates with your tools such as your favourite text/code editors, terminals, shells, command-line tools and more. The platform is designed to be extensible, allowing anyone to add easily support for more tools or to implement custom functionality through a modular extension system.

The full feature set is currently supported for:

Furthermore, you can also use any remote shell connection as a proxy when establishing new connections, allowing full flexibility to set up connection routes.

The project is still in a relatively early stage and will benefit massively from your feedback, issue reports, feature request, and more. There are also a lot more features to come in the future.
