Paperwindow
Serve desktop apps to web clients. Great for applications such as virtual workspaces, cloud gaming, and more!
Paperwindow is great for...
...a lot of things. Here are just a few.
Porting a legacy desktop app to the web
Want to port your old desktop app to the web? Paperwindow can do that (even if you're just setting up a server for accessing your office suite online.
Cloud gaming
Paperwindow streams fast and with low latency, allowing you to create competitive cloud gaming applications.
Running GUI apps in a container
Paperwindow can also be used to run GUI apps inside a container. Need headless/hidden GUI? Just remove the port binding.
Paperwindow has everything you need.
And comes without everything you don't.
GPU acceleration support
Stream games (or render) without ruining the beautiful graphics.
Support for Windows apps
Linux is great, but it doesn't run everything natively. We do.
Intuitive setup
No more fiddling around with config files. Instead, jump right in.
Support for displayless servers
Don't waste time setting up a virtual frame buffer or display.
Used here at Geschafft
We use Paperwindow in production at Geschafft Cloud.
Originally we made Paperwindow as a prototype for a cloud gaming solution, but we realized it could be so much more. That's when we open-sourced it and released it to the public.
