The PC you stream from
One command. It finds your distro, adds the signed repo, installs the host and the web console, opens the firewall, starts both, and tells you how to pair. Every choice is on one screen before it touches anything.
Runs on Debian 13+ / Ubuntu 26.04+ · Fedora 43+ · Arch Linux / CachyOS · Omarchy · Bazzite / Fedora Atomic · SteamOS (Steam Deck as host)
Your desktop sets the real floor: it has to be able to create a virtual display. Ubuntu 24.04 and Linux Mint 22 install the package but can't host — the installer says so and stops. Requirements

Let the device in
Open https://<host-ip>:47992 in any browser, sign in, and press Approve next to the device. Once — it reconnects on its own from then on.
The password: on Linux the installer's last lines show the command that prints it; on Windows the wizard showed it on its last page.
