You know that feeling when everything works perfectly on Windows…
and the moment you deploy to Linux, something breaks.
For me, that happened way too often.
I build Blazor apps on Windows, but my servers run on Linux.
Every time something felt off, I had to stop what I was doing, jump into SSH, resize terminals, double-check configs — just to see if the server was actually fine.
It got annoying fast.
So whenever I needed to test something quickly, I’d spin up a fresh server on UpCloud, deploy, and check if everything behaved as expected.
That’s exactly where Ghostly Bridge was born.
I wanted a fast, calm way to:
see my servers
connect instantly
verify that things actually work on Linux
without friction, noise, or tool overload.
Ghostly Bridge is the tool I wish I had years ago. Ghostly Bridge runs local-only, with no telemetry, and gives me instant access to servers without jumping between tools.
How do you handle the Windows → Linux gap in your workflow?
Do you just live with the friction, or did you build your own tools too?
