Thanks for your feedback, sorry if that wasn't clear. We'll fix our website. It's indeed macOS-only for now (we had to start somewhere). Here all steps to get started: https://support.coscreen.co/portal/kb/articles/getting-start...
Naw mate. Your good. I read the site in English and it said clearly macOS. No need to apologize. I was just trying to be nice. Site was cool. Maybe more documentation. Good luck to you.
Excellent idea, brilliantly executed. But as a CTO, I would be concerned about the security implications. It makes sense to route traffic via a central server because P2P does not scale to large numbers of participants (which is why things like the Jitsi Videobridge exist despite WebRTC P2P being a thing), but it means your customers have to trust you not to get hacked, be compelled to, or otherwise misplace/record s…
My concern about security is that this would be used like Slack, but for apps -- always on, sitting in the background, occasionally has my attention. If I drag an app that has an integrated terminal (e.g., VS Code), could one of my teammates start rooting around in my filesystem? It wouldn't be too hard to use Slack status to determine a time to do this when the other people sharing are not online/not watching.

I bet Linux is not even possible. How do you force windows to be at the same location across different systems. I use i3. There are plenty of other tiling managers. This is not gonna be cross-platform. Just my two cents.
Shouldn't be too hard. The wmctrl package, for example, supports a whole bunch of different window managers.

We're still figuring this out and will probably get inspired from remote desktop solutions. But reach out to us if you have specific ideas
If everyone could have separate clipboards, but still copy from and paste into each other's windows, that would be ideal. Also: this would be a major feature request from me. The ability for me to paste code into someone's else text editor (or copy out an error message) when I'm helping them would be a major productivity boost.
I don't know why it was decided to post in HN before explaining everything clearly in the text, but its good to see that the OP has been explaining as much as possible to everyone. Most of it is repeat questions about monitors, network security and OS compatibility(welcome to real world use cases :)). Adding this in the page beforehand would have changed the mood and tone in this comment section today :D Good luck wi…
Sounds interesting. I would like to see a video of the product on the home page before using it.
But here's the part of the video that shows the app (note: Linux & Windows isn't released yet, but you can see exactly how it works for an individual user) https://youtu.be/gHI5-ne2F2I?t=53
This is my child dream product ever since I learned about OLE and DCOM. A draggable & sharable window object, or remote objects embeddable in any window. It's a shame they didn't evolve down to that path. Good job OP!
>"... entirely free during the public beta..." What makes it different from (or better than) free versions of Zoom or Webex Teams?
Why not just share that secondary screen with Zoom? Am I missing some value add?

But there are a lot of new exciting products.
Where do you usually come across them?
