System Design Features
Portable: the code should be portable to almosty any platform, from mobile phones to data centers.
Secure: It uses strong cryptography to authenticate both the server and clients.
ZeroConf: using mDNS, local servers are detected automatically.
Simple Line Protocol: the protocol used to communicate between the client and server is a simple single line text protocol.
Performance: the system can preload sessions and tunnels, which makes starting new sessions very fast.
Flexible: the sessions are accessible from Window Switch, but also using xpra directly, any NX client or any standard VNC client.
Integration with file managers: Windows Explorer (on Windows) and Nautilus on Linux.
To provide all these features Window Switch relies on many open source tools and technologies, listed here.
Cool Features
