LiveDesk
Local screen wall Hub and remote client launcher.
Hub
npx -y livedesk
npx -y livedesk hubThis starts the LiveDesk Hub, opens the local screen wall, and accepts clients.
The Hub UI/API listens on 127.0.0.1 by default while the client endpoint
continues to listen on the LAN.
Client
npx -y livedesk client
npx -y livedesk client 3The client signs in with Google, discovers the active Hub, and connects to the wall. On Windows, enable Start with Windows on the connection page to reconnect automatically after reboot.
Frame modes
- Mode 2: independent 320x180 RGB565+LZO tiles for large, stable walls.
- Mode 3: direct hardware H.264 for focused remote control up to 4K.
- Mode 4: client Mode 2 inputs composited by an isolated Hub worker into one bounded H.264 Atlas stream, then split by UV into the normal browser slots.
Plans
- Free: 5 personal devices with a standard wall banner ad.
- Plus LTD launch: 30 personal devices, no ads, USD 79 one-time.
- Pro LTD launch: commercial use and larger walls, no ads, USD 199 one-time.
Monthly and yearly subscriptions are planned after the LTD launch.
Free ad slot
Free accounts show a standard bottom ad slot. Set these Vite build variables for a real AdSense placement:
VITE_LIVEDESK_ADSENSE_CLIENT=ca-pub-...
VITE_LIVEDESK_ADSENSE_SLOT=...Without those values, LiveDesk renders a neutral sponsored-placement placeholder so the free-plan layout can still be tested.
