It'd be great if this was easily installable outside of gnome. I'd love an easy way to do this on sway or hyprland. Unless there already is a way?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Wonder how feasible it would be to add a sunshine/moonlight option in there.
Maybe a little overkill for a lot of users, but it'd do wonders in the gaming community
I dream of an easy to use, ready to go, baked-in Sunshine implementation.
I fear it just isn't that well known.
I mean, as a remote desktop for office use is vastly superior to anything else.
That is so cool!
Finally, this is something Linux is severely lacking. Every Android phone today comes with screencast integrated. Connecting it to any projector with WiFi capability is no issue at all.
Btw, is there any casting device/service available that's not spyware (i.e. AppleTV/Chromecast)?
Miracast is basically just wireless HDMI
If you're just going to stream video like this you could use any linux hdmi/wifi capable device connected to your TV. If you wan't to up that with popular streaming services you throw in a remote controlled browser on the device.. which is what I believe a chromecast does under the hood.
Nothing like this on KDE, right?
I thought this was going to be a screen recording tool. Like sharex. Having cast feature is cool as well though.
I really like gnome but those giant buttons doesn't look good.
Just sharing a recent positive experience with bigger buttons: I just did some remote support because a printer wouldn't work. RustDesk worked great and thanks to the bigger buttons clicking them with awful latency wasn't so bad.
Yeah I guess they are practical and easier to push. There is always pros and cons. :)
That would be so great ! It’s something I’d enjoy having even if I don’t think I’ll use it that much. Gnome is really great 👍
Tried "GNOME Network Displays" from flathub previously, couldn't get it connected to my TV and I wish it had option to cast a specific window. Hoping it will be smoother experience when it's integrated into GNOME
I guess AirPlay is not possible due to Apple’s DRM.
not sure how relevant these may or may not be, but there are some client device implementations
EDIT: paste didnt work https://github.com/openairplay/open-airplay
The repository you linked has sadly not been updated in 9 years
while true, it would be more about the protocol and stuff.
