What it is

Apollo is a self-hosted desktop streaming server that enables cloud gaming and remote desktop capabilities by capturing native client resolution and framerate, encoding video/audio via hardware (NVIDIA NVENC, AMD, Intel) or software codecs, and transmitting it over the network to Artemis/Moonlight clients. It features automatic virtual display management on Windows (using SudoVDA), permission-based client access control, and a web UI for configuration and pairing. Monolithic C++ application structured by subsystem: src/nvenc/* handles NVIDIA encoding, src/platform/linux/* and implicit Windows code handle OS-specific graphics/audio/input, src/audio.cpp and src/input.cpp handle streams,…

Start here

Read these in order:

  • src_assets/common/assets/web/public/assets/locale/en.json — Foundation: doesn't import anything internally and is imported by 1 other file. Read first to learn the vocabulary.
  • src_assets/common/assets/web/locale.js — Built on the foundation; imported by 1 downstream file.
  • src_assets/common/assets/web/init.js — Layer 2 — application-level code that wires the lower layers together.

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

Clone: git clone https://github.com/ClassicOldSong/Apollo.git && cd Apollo. Install web UI dependencies: npm ci (based on package.json). For C++ build, check for CMakeLists.txt (present in language list) and likely…

Daily commands:

Web UI: npm run dev starts Vite in watch mode; npm run serve serves built fixtures on localhost. C++ server: run compiled binary after cmake --build . --config Release. No Docker evidence in top files, though Dock…

…shortened for this brief.

Key cautions & unknowns

  • Slowing — last commit 3mo ago
  • GPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
  • No CI workflows detected
  • Virtual Display Windows-only: Linux support planned but not implemented; pairing clients on Linux will fail to create matching virtual displays. Fixed client identity: Apollo assigns a fixed display identity…
  • Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
