Very nice work, but Microsoft did a pretty good job with their RDP clients, and making them for OS X and of course Windows. I'm not sure what the draw is for a web-based RDP client.

- nly 11y agoWe have this already with VNC. Ramnode has a HTML5 VNC client in their CP.

- smrtinsert 11y agoVNC is supposedly much slower than RDP.
- scott_karana 11y agoVNC is a raster/pixel protocol. RDP uses Windows' drawing primitives. So for anything that's not intrinsically raster (video, 3d rendering), RDP is certainly faster. :)

- awinder 11y agoOthers have alluded to this elsewhere in the comments, but the draw is that this is a programmable rdp client in Node.JS. You can use this to write host scripting code, you could use this as the basis for something like Screenhero, etc.
- ossreality 11y agoThe shit people will go through just to deal with Windows. Scripting a god damn RDP client in browser with JavaScript. Christ.
- hobarrera 11y agoIt's usable by everyone else NOT using MS (which, in IT, is a lot of people).
