Alexander Lohnau f740a8bda8 Use target-centric CMake approach for declaring debug category This makes it easier to read, because we do not have to handle a list of files that get added to the targets. In other KDE projects, we also prefer the target centric approach. In case one wants to reuse the same category in multiple places, it would be best to create a small static lib. But for now, this is not needed.		2023-07-22 20:51:19 +00:00

README

This plugin will allow users to use other kde connect devices as external displays.

It will use krfb-virtualmonitor to create it and feed the information and also request an URL to be opened on the other device that should be rendering the contents.

Upon connection, we'll be notifying under kdeconnect.virtualmonitor about our "resolutions, which include objects with a "resolution" and a "scale". These will provide the information necessary to issue a remote feed.

When a virtual monitor is requested, kdeconnect.virtualmonitor.request will include a "url" field that contains all information necessary to connect to the created feed. The remote client needs to support this url type.
