DocsWhat is Roomler?
Roomler is a browser-based remote desktop and a private WireGuard-style mesh network on one self-hostable agent, with team chat and video included.
Get startedRemote desktop
Remote desktop from any browser — open an enrolled machine as a live screen in a tab, hardware-encoded, end-to-end encrypted and consent-gated.
Remote desktopYour first remote session
Open a machine's screen, switch monitors, control quality, send keyboard shortcuts, and read the connection indicator that tells you how you are connected.
Remote desktopUnattended access
Unattended remote access to your own servers and workstations — nobody approves at the far end, even at the Windows lock screen or before anyone logs in.
Remote desktopConsent
Who gets asked before a remote session starts, which surface the prompt appears on, and what happens when nobody is there to answer.
Remote desktopCodecs and performance
Which video codecs and hardware encoders Roomler uses on Windows, macOS and Linux — and what to change when a remote session feels slow.
Remote desktopFiles and clipboard
Copy text between your machine and a remote one, and transfer files in both directions over the same encrypted peer-to-peer session.
Remote desktopPer-OS permissions
What Windows, macOS and Linux each require before screen capture and input injection work — and why a missing grant usually produces silence, not an error.
Remote desktopScreen recording
Record your own screen from roomler-desktop, or the screen of a machine you control from the viewer, in full quality, then cut it, speed it up and add music.
Remote desktopBlack screen or wallpaper only
The session connects and shows nothing — almost always a capture permission or a display-session problem, and almost never a network one.
