DiShus, phone control of a Linux or Windows PC

The full story

DiShus shows a PC's screen on an Android phone with a full PC keyboard (Ctrl, Super, Alt and function keys) and a touchpad. It connects peer-to-peer and encrypted over iroh/QUIC, with no account and no server. The Linux side is a Rust daemon using PipeWire capture, NVENC encoding and uinput for input; the phone app is Kotlin, and version 0.1.3 adds Windows.

The maker wrote one long specification with hard limits on RAM, no server, one-time pairing and expiry, the architecture and five milestones. Claude Code built the Rust workspace, protocol and command-line tool, wrote about 70 tests, installed the Android SDK and NDK and built the APK with the phone plugged in, and fixed its own bugs, such as a crash on disconnect and a pairing link that lived too long.

It is alpha software, tested daily on Hyprland with an NVIDIA card and a Galaxy Z Fold7; Windows is less tested. It is MIT/Apache-2.0 licensed.
