MeshCentral New Mobile Web Application

It’s been a while since the last announcement but I have been hard at work on MeshCentral, the web-based open source remote management software. This week we got a big new feature with release of MeshCentral v0.1.8-c on NPM, we now have a new web application for mobile devices. When you install your own MeshCentral server and access it using a mobile device (like a phone or tablet), you will see a new web page tailored for small devices. This is the first version of it, but already it offers many of the main usages that are offered on the main web site in a more compact form. Some of the features offered in the mobile application:
  • New card stack UI. Unlike the main web site, the mobile site uses a card stack UI model, where you can select screens and hit “back” at any time to return. This is quite a different model from the tabs on the main site, but allows the UI to be significantly more compact.
  • Real time user interface. Like the main web site, the mobile site is fully real time. You never need to hit “refresh” to get the latest state of a device. The state of all devices and groups will be updated in real time on the screen. 
  • Login and account management. Like the main web site, you can use the mobile web site to create a new account, login, logout, recover a lost password or perform various account management functions. All important things to get started.
  • Mesh Management. You can create or remove groups of computers, assign and remote permissions to various users.
  • Computer management. In addition to monitoring the real time state of all your computers, you can remotely see the desktop of any computer you have access to and access and manage files remotely.
  • Intel® AMT support. You can update the Intel AMT credentials, see Intel AMT state and perform a hardware KVM session directly from your phone. Because MeshCentral2 support Intel® AMT Client Initiated Remote Access (CIRA) you can be anywhere in the world and perform a hardware remote session to any computer over the Internet.
This is the first version of the mobile application, many more bug fixes and features still need to be added. However, the application should be quite usable and feedback is appreciated. The latest release is MeshCentral v0.1.8-c and is available now for update. Much more to come in the coming months.

Enjoy!

    Well nice but how do you zoom in on the desktop? Without zooming in it is not useful to do anything on the desktop of a computer looking at it from a cell phone. Too small.

MeshCentral - Windows ARM64, NodeJS v11, NPM Packages

Hi all. It's been a while since I last posted and now that I am settling a bit more in my work at Microsoft, I have a bit of time to occasionally look after MeshCentral again. It's about time, there where a bunch of things that needed to get fixed. Before that, I want to say that I am doing great. I am working on Microsoft Forms which is one of the offerings of Microsoft 365. For kicks, I started a YouTube channel on Microsoft Forms here during a Microsoft hacking week. I tried to up my game since the videos I last published for MeshCentral. Also, I wanted to share pictures below. I was at a Tesla Supercharger last weekend and, by luck, got to see a Tesla Cybertruck in person. It's very big. Obviously, this is a release candidate driven by a Tesla employee. I saw it after attempting to see the solar eclipse over Oregon, but sadly, too many clouds and saw nothing. In any case, back to MeshCentral. In the last few months a few things have happened with the new releases. Wind...

Starting work at Microsoft

Hi everyone. It’s been a while since the last blog post and I wanted up update everyone on what is going on. As many of you know already from a discussion on GitHub , Bryan and I have been laid-off from Intel in early November 2022. This was quite a surprise as MeshCentral, MeshCommander, MeshCMD and other tools where widely used. This said, Intel has been having poor financials and Bryan and I where part of a very large first wave of downsizing by the company that involved many people that I know and worked with for a long time. I had been working for Intel for over 25 years having started in September 1998. Over the years I worked on IPsec key negotiation, Universal Plug & Play, DLNA and Intel® AMT. I loved working on all these projects and especially loved working with the open-source community on Mesh projects. Obviously, this was not my decision and Bryan and I had look for what comes next. One option was to continue working on MeshCentral as part of another company or with...
