NomadFlowCode lets you manage your development servers directly from your iPhone or iPad. Connect to your self-hosted NomadFlowCode server and get full control over your git repositories, feature branches, and terminal sessions — wherever you are. KEY FEATURES • Git Worktree Management — Each feature branch gets its own dedicated worktree. Switch between features instantly without stashing or losing context. • Full Terminal Access — Open a real terminal session on your server right from the app. Run commands, edit files, and debug code on the go via ttyd integration. • Tmux Session Management — Every feature branch automatically gets its own tmux window. Your running processes stay alive even when you disconnect. • Multi-Server Support — Connect to multiple development servers. Manage different projects across different machines from one app. • Repository Overview — Browse all your git repositories, see active feature branches, and quickly jump into any project. • Branch Creation — Create new feature branches from any base branch directly from your phone. The app sets up the worktree and tmux session automatically. HOW IT WORKS NomadFlowCode consists of two parts: 1. A lightweight Rust binary that runs on your development server. It provides an HTTP API, a WebSocket terminal proxy, and an optional TUI wizard for setup. 2. This mobile app, which connects to your server over your network. All communication stays between your device and your server — no cloud services, no third parties. REQUIREMENTS • A Linux or macOS machine running the NomadFlowCode server binary • Git and tmux installed on the server • ttyd for terminal access • Network connectivity between your phone and server NomadFlowCode is open-source software.
