Android 14 adds support for using your smartphone as a webcam
Use a vnc client on your android device and setup a virtual monitor on your desktop that is really a vnc server.
I know how to do that with Sway and swayvnc on wayland, as well as with xorg.

How can i create a virtual display on X11? [Amd]
No it is not necessary. The screen mirroring and sharing single application window functionality of Deskreen are working without any need for Virtual Display Adapter. The Virtual Display Plug is needed only if you want to extend your computer desktop to have a full secondary screen experience with Deskreen.

Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
I use Deskreen with Windows, it has a Linux version that probably works similarly. I think it leverages browser streaming tech.

Easiest way to get it working is with a dummy plug, but maybe there's more options on Linux to fake a display in software.
