Over a month ago Christian Hammond (chipx86) has released the first technology preview of WSX. This tool enables users to access the console of their shared virtual machines via a web browser without installing any plug-ins or web controls. This service renders an HTML5 web page that can connect to your workstation hosts or ESXi servers (requires vSphere 5.0), enumerate the available virtual machines and allow you to power them on and interact with the desktop.
The July tech preview holds many improvements:
- Improved Home Page
- Improved Server Page
- Big Honkin’ Power Button
- Better Touch Input
- Mouse Wheels
- Better Retina Support
- SSL Support
- Easier Installation
- Smarter Defaults
- Performance Tweaks
- Bug Fixes
If you're intrested and want to give it a try, just hop over to the ChipLog website and find out the latest news and downloads.
