## Quickstart

$ pip install picklecast $ picklecast Server address: 192.168.1.100 Display URL: http://localhost:8443/display http://192.168.1.100:8443/display Client URL: http://192.168.1.100:8443/

Then connect to the display URL from display computer, and the client URL from your personal device.

Optionally install a systemd service (Linux)

picklecast install_service ~/.config/systemd/user systemctl –user daemon-reload systemctl –user start picklecast

## How it Works

Picklecast is just a Python program that serves HTML and relays handshake messages between two browsers. The streaming and displaying is handled in Javascript in the display/client browsers using the WebRTC api.
