## Description

**Ssh Server Chrome Extension** enables secure and efficient file transfers between your PC and device using SCP and SFTP protocols. Apart from transferring files, it offers a beta version command line interface for advanced users, requiring "/system/bin/sh" preinstalled. The extension supports intents for starting and stopping the SSH server, allowing automation through apps like "Autostart and StaY!" or Tasker.

Tested with popular clients like WinSCP, FileZilla for secure transfers, and Putty for command line access, this extension simplifies managing your device remotely. Ideal for users seeking a reliable and integrated SSH server tool within their Chrome browser environment.
