m1k1o/neko vs demodesk/neko, why do we have two of them?

This project started as a fork of m1k1o/neko. But over time, development went way ahead of the original one in terms of features, updates and refactoring. The goal is to rebase m1k1o/neko repository onto this one and move all extra features (such as chat and emotes) to a standalone plugin.

• This project is aimed to be the engine providing foundation for all applications that are streaming desktop environment using WebRTC to the browser.
• m1k1o/neko is meant to be self-hosted replacement for rabb.it: Community edition with well-known GUI, all the social functions (such as chat and emotes) and easy deployment.

Notable differences to the m1k1o/neko are:

• Go plugin support.
• Multiple encoding qualities simulcast.
• Single cursor for host - cursor image proxying.
• Custom cursor style/badge for participants.
• Inactive cursors (participants that are not hosting).
• Fallback mode and reconnection improvements:
  • Watching using screencasting.
  • Controlling using websockets.
• Members handling:
  • Access control (view, interactivity, clipboard).
  • Posibility to add external members providers.
  • Persistent login (using cookies).
  • Split members and sessions.
• Drag and drop passthrough.
• File upload passthrough (experimental).
• Microphone passthrough.
• Webcam passthrough (experimental).
• Bi-directional text/html clipboard.
• Keyboard layouts/variants.
