Web Desktop Environment

A cross-platform desktop-environment with a web interface

What is a Web Desktop Environment

just like any other desktop environment it is just a visual interface for your computer.
the twist with this desktop-environment is that "web-desktop-environment" visual interface runs on the web with his server running localy on your computer

Use Cases

  • interface for a cloud server (can possibly be used as a replacement for control panel)
  • interface for small/low power computers like the Raspberry Pi zero
  • interface for controlling your computer over a long distance

The technologies behind "web-desktop-devironment"

both the server and are build using a react framework called "react-fullstack" which is a framework for building fast react applications that rely a tight connection between the client and the server.
