# sqlpxc/airhand > Airhand is a remote desktop tool that uses QUIC for low-latency screen control, acting as both host and controller on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a Docker web console option. It handles hardware video encoding, audio streaming, clipboard sync, and multi-monitor support. - Magnitude: 6.1 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 206 total · +2 stars measured 2026-11-02, 02:55–05:01 UTC, ≈ 88 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Productivity & self-hosted · Language: Rust · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-31 · Last push: 2026-11-02 - GitHub: https://github.com/sqlpxc/airhand · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/sqlpxc/airhand ## Useful for - Connect to a remote Windows machine from a browser without installing the client - Control multiple computers simultaneously with a multi-screen overview - Stream system audio and video from a home server with adaptive bitrate ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-02 (UTC), 02:55–05:01: 204 → 206 stars (+2). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +88 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 2 days old and already has 206 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #157. - About 280 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 74 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 74 - Average over the last week: 98 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 0 ## Stars per day, last 3 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-31 … 2026-11-02: 69, 137, 2 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #157 ## Similar by description 1. **LizardByte/Sunshine** — 2.3 · Steady · Games & graphics · C++ · +2 stars measured 2026-11-02, 00:11–05:05 UTC, ≈ 26 by evening Self-hosted game stream host for Moonlight clients, with hardware encoding on AMD, Intel and Nvidia GPUs and a web UI for configuration and pairing.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/rustdesk/rustdesk.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
