Get Started

Use the dashboard when you want the fastest path to a shell, a hostname, and a shareable URL.

Open the dashboard

Go to app.psilon.dev and sign in with the account your operator gave you. After sign-in, the VMs view shows your available workspaces.

Open a shell

From the VMs view, choose a workspace and click Open Terminal. The browser terminal is enough for most setup work and does not require local SSH configuration.

Add SSH access

For regular local terminal use, run:

ssh psilon.dev

If PSILON has not seen your SSH key before, the terminal prints a registration link. Open it, complete CERN sign-in, then return to the terminal. After registration, the same key is admitted automatically.

Run and share a web app

Start your app inside the workspace and listen on port 80. Then use Share in the dashboard to create a share URL. Copy the link from the dashboard when you need to send it to someone else.

Share URLs require PSILON/CERN sign-in. Add collaborators from Tunnels when another user needs access.
