## What it is
Weylus is a Rust application that turns a tablet or smartphone into a graphic tablet/touch screen for your computer, streaming screen content to the device's browser and sending stylus, touch, and keyboard input back. It runs a local webserver so no app is needed on the tablet, and offers hardware-accelerated video encoding, with the richest feature set (stylus pressure/tilt, multi-touch, window capture, second-screen mode) on Linux.

## Use cases
- use my tablet as a drawing tablet for my pc
- mirror my computer screen to an ipad or android tablet
- use a stylus with pressure sensitivity in Krita or Xournal++
- turn my tablet into a second monitor
- control my computer with multi-touch from a phone browser
- annotate slides on my tablet while presenting from my laptop

## When to choose
- you want tablet-based drawing or touch input on Linux with stylus pressure and tilt
- you don't want to install any app on the tablet, just use a browser
- you need hardware-accelerated screen mirroring or a second-screen setup

## When to avoid
- you need a polished commercial alternative like Sidecar or Duet Display with guaranteed latency
- you're on Windows or macOS and need full stylus/multi-touch parity with Linux
- you need wireless input without network access or firewall configuration
