It is implemented using websockets and canvas darwing. It directly speaks the remote desktop protocol. A websocket proxy that translates the TCP connection into a usable form is needed. Websockify works for this out of the box directly under Haiku. Note that not all drawing modes are implemented, and most of them don't have a good match on the canvas side. Fonts are also not properly supported yet. A sans serif font will be used on the client for everything and the metrics between the client and server will diverge and cause drawing artifacts. Usage: * Run an application with a target screen to create the desktop: TARGET_SCREEN=5001 Terminal * Use a websocket proxy to expose the port via websockets: websockify.py 5000 localhost:5001 * Open HaikuRemoteDesktop.html in a browser and connect. To get the full desktop experience you may want to run Tracker and Deskbar inside the virtual desktop. As they are both single launch and controlled by the launch_daemon, you have to stop them via: launch_roster stop x-vnd.be-trak launch_roster stop x-vnd.be-tskb And then start them manually from within the virtual desktop: /system/Tracker & /system/Deskbar & |

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku

Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
