A browser based serial terminal. No plugins. Vanilla javascript.
I work with 3d printers alot and use a chromebook as my primary device. In the latest verison of chrome a new serial API was exposed allowing javascript web applications to directly connect to serial devices from a web page.
The index.html file contains a bare bones serial terminal with fewer than 150 lines of code between the HTML, CSS and javascript.
A live version of the serial terminal can be accesed at (https://www.serialterminal.com). Feel free to use it at your pleasure.
Instructions for use:
- Load https://www.serialterminal.com
- Set baud speed from drop down.
- click connect.
- select serial device
- Talk to your serial device from the built in serial console.

Originally created by mmiscool as a simple example. ZanzyTHEbar has made some significant improvements and added a settings page exposing more of the connection settings along with doing an xterm.js implementation under the advanced button.
