SSHtep

SSHtep (SSH Step) is a script that automates SSH key setup and connection shortcuts.

It can generate a new key pair if needed or let you use an existing one. It also prints out a command to add your public key to the authorized keys of a remote host. Plus, it updates your SSH config so you can connect to servers using simple shortcuts, set custom ports, choose a username, and add a ProxyJump if needed.

Basically, good for automating the process of setting up ssh configs.
