RustDesk

RustDesk provides a remote‑desktop solution that can be run on a self‑hosted server, giving users full control over their connection data. It supports Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, and includes a web client that can be served from the same host. The software is open source and free to use, with a Docker‑based installation process that automates server setup and network configuration.

The project targets individuals and organizations that need remote access without relying on third‑party SaaS services, such as IT support teams, administrators and remote workers. By hosting the server internally, users can keep all session data on their own infrastructure, which can aid compliance and privacy requirements.

RustDesk distinguishes itself through extensive configurability—more than ninety server options—and the ability to brand the client application. Its community‑driven development and large GitHub following provide ongoing enhancements and support, while the Docker compose workflow makes deployment straightforward for on‑premise environments.
