Has anyone used sunshine/moonlight for low latency remote desktop? I've used it for remote gaming but I since I've had good experiences I though it might be testing for work.

For testing I've used it to access my local machine but that's it.

It's clunky to set up but solid performance. Sunshine is just a bit too alpha at the moment. On our Ubuntu rig it will crash it if left on.

Just started using Reemo, I think it's a better work tool and great for people that aren't tech centric.

I also want this.

So my set-up would be for my virtue one glasses.

What would be ideal would be a virtual desktop. If I could plug my laptop info Ethernet and access it anywhere on that wifi.

Not sure if sunshine/ moonlight would work.

Also because it's work laptop I've no way to download. So a browser application would be best.

Unfortunately I don't think moonlight will ever work without a client. Its just to taxing of a protocol for that to work.

Are there alternatives ? I would think of GeForce now can work. A virtual desktop can't be too difficult to implement
