LAN Mouse is a mouse and keyboard sharing software
You might take some inspiration (or some code) from https://github.com/htrefil/rkvm
I've used it and it works pretty well, is written in rust, and it has one big advantage - by emulating the keyboard and mouse at the linux evdev layer it avoids touching any of the desktop-specific apis. (It also has encryption, though over TCP so has issues with managing connections. I think your choice of UDP was a good one)

My personal experience: Plasma/X11 > Plasma/Wayland
It looks like RKVM is supposed to work well, but I can't figure out how to compile the Windows client.

KVM software currently working in Wayland
only one i know is https://github.com/htrefil/rkvm which either doesn't work or has so little documentation that you probably can't figure it out yourself

A cross platform input simulation crate
On my search I found Enigo, a cross platform input simulation in Rust, exactly what I needed, but the package seems not maintained anymore, as the last commit was 3 years ago, that is fine but I think I encountered a bug regarding a non English keyboard being used.
