    TurboVNC

    TurboVNC

    High-speed, 3D-friendly, TightVNC-compatible remote desktop software

    TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

    ScreenCat

    ScreenCat

    Webrtc screensharing electron app for mac os (Alpha)

    The ScreenCat project is an open-source screen sharing and remote collaboration application built on Electron and WebRTC that lets users share their desktop and grant control of mouse and keyboard to remote participants. Originally designed for developers and tech enthusiasts rather than commercial use, it emphasizes hackability and contribution from the community. The software uses experimental Chromium WebRTC APIs to stream desktop video to another peer, and it supports remote control through a browser interface by sending a simple invite code. Although still in alpha status, it provides a rare open collaborative alternative to proprietary screen sharing solutions. The architecture includes native dependencies for simulating input events, enabling real-time remote control across systems. Users can also screenshare between two ScreenCat applications or with a normal web browser, making it versatile for remote assistance and pairing scenarios.
