Remote desktop accessible from a browser reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PropagandaBots · 2023-10-06 18:52 Is there any software that can provide X or even a VM through a browser? I want to be able to access a single application (android studio) from a browser so it can be used from a locked down Chromebook. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cerealonmytie · 2023-10-06 18:53 [Apache Guacamole](https://guacamole.apache.org) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sure-Temperature · 2023-10-06 19:04 Webtop is also an option ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NobodyRulesPenguins · 2023-10-06 19:19 Kasm or n.eko ---------------------------------------------------------------------- moarmagic · 2023-10-06 19:52 Cab you install apps on web top?

I already have a docker install running. It seems like only user data is persistent through reboots so I'm customizing a docker image now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- timvandijknl · 2023-10-06 22:05 NoVNC ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- drfusterenstein · 2023-10-06 22:33 r/MeshCentral is worth looking into ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jcarlough · 2023-10-06 22:54 Do you know of anything that works as well for a tablet? Guac is “ok” on tablet (it’s great on PC). The navigation, especially keyboard, doesn’t work all that well. I know of teamviewer and the like, but I like the browser approach of guacamole. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- westonc · 2023-10-06 23:01 Do you (or anyone else who runs it) use it to connect to a desktop hosted on the same machine you're hosting Guacamole on, or do you use it to connect to desktops elsewhere (maybe even a home-hosted machine)? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zarlo5899 · 2023-10-06 23:03 rustdesk has a web client ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AskForMyBitcoinAdres · 2023-10-06 23:06 i think he is asking if you remote into another computer, can you install programs on the remote computer. some wont let you for security reasons. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- madrascafe · 2023-10-07 00:22 This is the way ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NikStalwart · 2023-10-07 01:12 Since when?
