Orchestra

I'm building this app as a project during my learning of Typescript, Go and CyberSec. The goal of this app is to simplify the sharing of small live sessions across devices.

Built with React and Go

How it works

This app currently allows users to either share their screens or get the screen of other users and control them.

How to run it?

The app works over a small local web sever written in Go and a UI made with React. The client is hosted on Vercel while the peer server is hosted on Heroku (simply add your own server via either heroku buttons, peerjs docs or leaving it blank for peerjs to use its own default servers -> One of peerjs default servers is already set up in the .env-sample file).

How to share your screen

Start the local server
Paste the given wss URL from the server in the respective field on the client.

Once "Server" is clicked the client will establish a web socket to your local server

Now click share screen and share the generated ID.

To watch the screen

Paste the ID
Click
Done!
