- Windows:
irm get.scoop.sh | iexscoop install ffmpeg
- macOS:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"brew install ffmpeg
- Linux:
sudo apt updatesudo apt install -y ffmpeg
- src/main.rs: Application entry point (main logic)
- src/caster.rs: Handles screen capture and transmission
- src/receiver.rs: Handles screen reception and display
- src/ui.rs: Manages the user interface and toolbar
- Launch the application with
cargo run --release ui - Select whether to transmit or receive a screen
- If transmitting, choose the screen area to share
