The desktop version\nuses [wxWidgets](https://www.wxwidgets.org/) and runs on Unix, Mac OS X and\nWindows. There also is an [Android version](/android/).\n\nThe roadmap for future developments regarding the project can be found\n[here](https://github.com/bk138/multivnc/projects).\n\n## Features\n\n* Support for most VNC encodings including Tight.\n* TLS support, i.e. AnonTLS and VeNCrypt, including support for self-signed certificates.\n* Support for SSH-Tunnelling with password- and privkey-based authentication.\n* Unicode copy \u0026 paste to and from the VNC server.\n* Discovery of VNC servers advertising themselves via ZeroConf.\n* Bookmarking of connections.\n* UltraVNC Repeater support.\n* Supports server framebuffer resize.\n* Experimental support for MulticastVNC.\n\n### Desktop-only Features\n\n* Several connections with one viewer using tabs.\n* Listen mode (Reverse VNC). Via tabs it's possible to listen \n  for and serve multiple incoming connections.\n* Record and replay of user input macros.\n* Under X11, seamless control of the remote side by moving pointer over the\n  (default upper) screen edge. Borrows heavily from x2vnc by\n  Fredrik Hübinette \u003chubbe@hubbe.net\u003e, which in turn was based on\n  ideas from x2x and code from vncviewer.\n* Simple, loggable statistics.  \n\n### Android-only Features\n\n* Import and export of saved connections.\n* Virtual mouse button controls with haptic feedback.\n* Two-finger swipe gesture recognition.\n* A super fast touchpad mode for local use.\n* Hardware-accelerated OpenGL drawing and zooming.\n\n\n## How to get it\n\n### MultiVNC for Desktop\n\n[\u003cimg src=\"https://flathub.org/api/badge?svg\" height=\"60\" /\u003e](https://flathub.org/apps/details/net.christianbeier.MultiVNC)\n[\u003cimg src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Download_on_the_App_Store_Badge.svg/320px-Download_on_the_App_Store_Badge.svg.png\" height=\"60\" /\u003e](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/multivnc/id6738012997)\n\nTo get bleeding-edge packages built from the master development branch, navigate to\n[the list of CI runs](https://github.com/bk138/multivnc/actions/workflows/ci.yml),\nselect the last successful one and download the wanted artifact.\n\n### MultiVNC for Android\n[\u003cimg src=\"https://fdroid.gitlab.io/artwork/badge/get-it-on.png\"\n     alt=\"Get it on F-Droid\"\n     height=\"80\"\u003e](https://f-droid.org/packages/com.coboltforge.dontmind.multivnc/)\n[\u003cimg src=\"https://play.google.com/intl/en_us/badges/images/generic/en-play-badge.png\"\n     alt=\"Get it on Google Play\"\n     height=\"80\"\u003e](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coboltforge.dontmind.multivnc)\n\n## How to build\n\n### MultiVNC for Desktop\n\nAfter cloning the repo, do\n\n```\n   git submodule update --init\n```\nDepending on which OS you are on, you end up with a debug version packaged\nas a .deb, .dmg or .exe you can install:\n\n#### Linux\n\n```\n   mkdir build\n   cd build\n   cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug\n   cmake --build .\n   cpack\n```\n\n#### MacOS/Windows\n\n```\n   conan install . --output-folder=build --build=missing -s build_type=Debug\n   cd build\n   cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=\"conan_toolchain.cmake\" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug\n   cmake --build .\n   cpack\n```\n\n### MultiVNC for Android\n\nSee the [Android version's README](android/README.md).\n\n\n## MulticastVNC notes\n\nYou can get a modified libvncserver/libvncclient at\nhttps://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/tree/multicastvnc -\nthis is the same library that MultiVNC uses internally.\n","funding_links":["https://liberapay.com/bk138","https://patreon.com/bk138","https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=HKRTWKNKBKPKN","https://issuehunt.io/r/bk138/multivnc","https://liberapay.com/bk138/donate","https://www.patreon.com/bk138"],"categories":["C++"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbk138%2Fmultivnc","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbk138%2Fmultivnc","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbk138%2Fmultivnc/lists"}
