Flectra

Overview

Still opening PuTTY, memorizing commands and editing config files in vi to manage your server?

Flectra handles all of it in a single desktop app.

Connect to a server over SSH and the dashboard shows CPU, memory and disk in real time, you run commands right in the terminal, spin up a website in a few clicks, manage user accounts, and even run security checks — all from this one app.

2.1MB. That's the installer. A tool that can replace paid server management panels like ServerPilot and RunCloud, packed into 2MB. No monthly subscription, no agent to install on the server. Install it on your PC, connect over SSH, and you're done.

Built with Tauri 2 + React 19 + Rust. 10x lighter than Electron, with near-native speed.

How Flectra differs from other server management tools

All you need is SSH. Install a panel on the server and that panel itself becomes a security risk. Flectra doesn't touch the server. It just connects from your PC over SSH.

How to use

1. Run Flectra_0.1.0_x64-setup.exe to install
2. Launch the program
3. Add a server with the "+" button at the bottom left (host, port, username, password or key file)
4. Connect with a single click on the server
5. Check server status on the dashboard, then go to the feature you want from the left menu

No separate agent needs to be installed on the server.
As long as SSH access is available, you can manage any Linux server.
To remove it, just uninstall Flectra from Add/Remove Programs.

Why Flectra?

2.1MB. That really is all of it.

Compare for yourself:

• Similar tool A: installs directly on the server + monthly subscription + agent required
• Similar tool B: free, but installs on the server + heavy + security risk
• Flectra: 2.1MB. Installs on your PC only. Does nothing to the server. Free. Forever.

It's possible because it's built with Tauri 2 and Rust. 10x lighter than Electron, with near-native speed.

• Installer size: 2.1MB
• Executable size: 5.5MB
• Memory usage: about 30-50MB
• CPU usage: 0% when idle (event-driven)
• Network: uses only the SSH connection (no communication with external servers)
• Personal data collection: none
