Deskreen is an open‑source Electron desktop application that streams your computer screen to any device with a web browser via WebRTC. It lets you use phones, tablets, TVs or other computers as secondary displays over Wi‑Fi.

Use cases

  • Turn a tablet or smartphone into a second monitor for my laptop
  • Mirror my desktop screen to a smart TV without cables
  • Present a single application window on a remote device during a meeting
  • Use a web browser as a teleprompter while recording video
  • Share my screen with multiple devices simultaneously over a local network

When to choose

  • You need a free, cross‑platform way to extend or mirror your display without buying hardware adapters
  • You want to use any web‑enabled device (phone, tablet, TV, another PC) as a secondary screen
  • You prefer an open‑source solution with end‑to‑end encryption
  • You work in environments with only Wi‑Fi or LAN connectivity and no internet access

When to avoid

  • You require ultra‑low latency or high‑frame‑rate streaming for gaming or professional video editing
  • You need support for multiple high‑resolution monitors with hardware acceleration
  • You depend on proprietary features only available in the paid Pro version
  • You need built‑in remote control or touch‑event handling on the client side
