Dev Container
If you already have VS Code and Docker installed, you can click the badge above to get started. Clicking will cause VS Code to automatically install the Dev Containers extension if needed, clone the source code into a container volume, and spin up a dev container for use.
Go through
DEVCONTAINER.md
for more info.
Dependencies
Desktop versions use
Sciter
or Flutter for GUI, this tutorial is for Sciter only.
Please download Sciter dynamic library yourself.

Raw steps to build
Prepare your Rust development env and C++ build env
Install
vcpkg
, and set
VCPKG_ROOT
env variable correctly
-
Windows: vcpkg install libvpx:x64-windows-static libyuv:x64-windows-static opus:x64-windows-static aom:x64-windows-static
-
Linux/macOS: vcpkg install libvpx libyuv opus aom
run
cargo run

Change Wayland to X11 (Xorg)
RustDesk does not support Wayland. Check
this
to configuring Xorg as the default GNOME session.
Wayland support
Wayland does not seem to provide any API for sending keypresses to other windows. Therefore, the RustDesk uses an API from a lower level, namely the
/dev/uinput
device (Linux kernel level).
When Wayland is the controlled side, you have to start in the following way:
# Start uinput service
$ sudo rustdesk --service
$ rustdesk
Notice
: Wayland screen recording uses different interfaces. RustDesk currently only supports org.freedesktop.portal.ScreenCast.
$ dbus-send --session --print-reply \
--dest=org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop \
/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop \
org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get \
