# Deploy and Host Ubuntu Terminal on Railway

Ubuntu Terminal is a browser-accessible Ubuntu 26.04 LTS shell deployed on Railway via [ttyd](https://github.com/tsl0922/ttyd). The most widely used Linux distribution in the cloud — password-protected, persistent storage at `/root`, essential dev tools, and common C/system libraries pre-installed so most language runtimes and native extensions compile out of the box.

## About Hosting Ubuntu Terminal

Hosting Ubuntu Terminal on Railway means running an Ubuntu 26.04 LTS container with a browser-based terminal exposed via ttyd. Ubuntu 26.04 is a long-term support release, giving you a stable, well-documented environment with the full apt ecosystem. Railway handles the build, networking, and SSL automatically. The image ships with commonly used C libraries — libssl-dev, zlib1g-dev, libffi-dev, libsqlite3-dev, libreadline-dev, libncurses-dev, libxml2-dev, libxslt1-dev, libpq-dev, libmysqlclient-dev, libyaml-dev, libpng-dev, libjpeg-dev, and linux-libc-dev — so most language runtimes and native extensions compile without extra setup. A persistent volume is mounted at `/root` so your files survive restarts.

## Common Use Cases

- Familiar Ubuntu LTS environment in the cloud accessible from any browser without local setup
- Building and testing software against Ubuntu — the most common Linux deployment target
- Learning Linux, shell scripting, and system administration in a clean, reproducible environment

## Dependencies for Ubuntu Terminal Hosting

- [ttyd](https://github.com/tsl0922/ttyd) — serves the bash shell as a browser-accessible terminal over HTTP
- [Ubuntu 26.04 LTS](https://ubuntu.com/) — long-term support release with full apt ecosystem
