Open Source JavaScript Remote Desktop Software

The open source, multi-platform, self-hosted, feature-packed web site for remote device management. MeshCentral is a full computer management web site. With MeshCentral, you can run your own web server to remotely manage and control computers on a local network or anywhere on the internet. Once you get the server started, create device group and download and install an agent on each computer you want to manage. A minute later, the new computer will show up on the web site and you can take control of it. MeshCentral includes full web-based remote desktop, terminal and file management capability.

noVNC is a VNC client JavaScript library as well as an application built on top of that library. noVNC runs well in any modern browser, including mobile browsers (iOS and Android).

uptime is an archived Node.js and MongoDB application for remote HTTP monitoring. It lets users define checks for websites or endpoints, then tracks whether those targets are available over time. The application includes a web interface built with Twitter Bootstrap for managing checks and visualizing availability. Users can configure polling intervals, slow-response thresholds, alert thresholds, tags, and expected response patterns. It was designed as a self-hosted monitoring utility for teams that wanted visibility into uptime without relying entirely on external services. Since the repository is archived, it is best treated as a historical monitoring project or reference implementation rather than a modern production-ready service.

Apache Guacamole is a clientless remote desktop gateway. It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH. We call it clientless because no plugins or client software are required. Thanks to HTML5, once Guacamole is installed on a server, all you need to access your desktops is a web browser.

Myrtille is a simple way to connect remote desktops and applications from a native web browser, without plugin, extension or configuration. For the end user, there is just need for a browser. Server side, it uses the .NET (C#) framework and the RDP protocol through an HTTP(S) gateway. It's very comparable to Guacamole (https://github.com/glyptodon) or FreeRDP-WebConnect (https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP-WebConnect), except it uses the Microsoft .NET (C#) technologies for a better integration with the Remote Desktop Services (RDS) layer. It also support HTML4, in addition to HTML5, for backward compatibility.

Keyboard: text, function keys and shortcuts. Media: volume, mute, play/pause and previous/next track. The Android menu includes saved mouse, connection, theme and display settings. Connect: 1. Extract the Windows ZIP into a directory and run its root Open Remote Control.exe launcher. Double-click its tray icon to open the dashboard in your browser. 2. Install the Android APK and connect both devices to the same local network. 3. Select the discovered PC and approve the phone in the dashboard, or scan the pairing QR. Access is saved for future connections. Windows checks for updates after startup; approve downloading and restarting under Sobre > Atualizações in the dashboard.

LiveScreen makes it possible to publish GUI screenshots that users can interact with. Unlike other remote desktop solutions, no special client is required. Web browsers can act as clients without employing helper apps, plugins or Java.

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.

Control your IoT board with a graphical interface from your local network. CNatural is a remote desktop for embbeded systems and IoT boards without running a real desktop on the host platform, this makes CNatural more efficient than other remote desktop managers. Because all rendering and applications runs on the client's web browser, the host board will run fast as usual. This was a problem with the original target of the project: the Intel® Galileo board, which when used with a desktop and a remote desktop manager gets slow and becomes unusable. CNatural is a text-server with a graphical front-end, this means that the host board will never need to render anything.
