Amni-Connect — E2EE Rust + Electron Remote Desktop

A secure, modern alternative to Windows Remote Desktop.

Architecture

• Electron — Cross-platform desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux)
• Rust — High-performance input controller (enigo for mouse/keyboard simulation)
• WebRTC — Peer-to-peer encrypted screen streaming (E2EE)
• Socket.IO — Signaling server (can be hosted anywhere)

Core Feature Implemented

When a device connects to the server, the viewer immediately gains control of the host's desktop.

How to Run

1. Start the signaling server

   npm run server

2. Build & run the Rust input controller

   cd rust
   cargo build --release
   ./target/release/amni-control

3. Launch the Electron app

   npm start

Usage

• Click "Start Hosting (Share Screen)" on the machine you want to control.
• On the second device, enter the room code → you instantly gain mouse + keyboard control.
• All video is sent over WebRTC (end-to-end encrypted).
• Input events are forwarded securely through the Rust backend.

Next steps you can request:

• Full Rust + Tauri rewrite (lighter than Electron)
• End-to-end encryption on the signaling layer (libsodium / Noise protocol)
• Auto-start Rust binary from Electron
• Bandwidth optimization + VP9 codec
• Multi-monitor support
