  • broadway-baseimage

    Docker baseimage for GTK3 Broadway

    • I made a docker image for broadway that runs on ubuntu if you prefer to run apps that way: https://github.com/m-bers/broadway-baseimage

  • Tiger VNC

    High performance, multi-platform VNC client and server

    • Seconding this. While X11 forwarding is a good choice for LAN environments with low latency, it falls apart when the conditions aren't as good. VNC over Wireguard or SSH tunnel is the way to go, my favorite is TigerVNC.
