# wayvnc ## Introduction This is a VNC server for wlroots based Wayland compositors. ## Building ### Runtime Dependencies * EGL * libuv * libxkbcommon * neatvnc * OpenGL ES V2.0 * pixman ### Build Dependencies * GCC * meson * ninja * pkg-config The easiest way to satisfy the neatvnc dependency is to clone it into the subprojects directory: ``` mkdir subprojects git clone https://github.com/any1/neatvnc.git subprojects/neatvnc ``` Setting the buildtype flag is not required but it is recommended as there are significant performance gains to be had from an optimised build. ``` meson build --buildtype=release ninja -C build ``` ## Running Wayvnc can be run from the build directory like so: ``` ./build/wayvnc ``` :radioactive: The server only accepts connections from localhost by default. To accept connections via any interface, set the address to `0.0.0.0` like this: ``` ./build/wayvnc 0.0.0.0 ``` :warning: Do not do this on a public network or the internet. Wayvnc does not support any kind of encryption or password protection. A good way to protect your VNC connection is to use SSH tunneling while listening on localhost.
