Resume your last session
Your last session may still be open — the link stays the same if you resume within a few minutes.
Share your screen
Pick a screen, window, or tab. You'll get a link anyone can open in a browser — desktop or phone. Video goes straight from your machine to theirs, encrypted in transit; this server only introduces the two of you and never sees a frame. Past four viewers a session switches to a broadcast server, which does relay the video — see the note below.
This device can't share a screen
Phones and tablets have no screen-capture API — a browser limit, not a Peerglass one. They make good viewers, though: open the link a presenter sends you and the stream plays full-screen.

How this session scales
Sessions start peer-to-peer — lowest latency, no media server. Your machine encodes one stream per viewer, so past 4 viewers the session switches to broadcast through an SFU (one encode, server fan-out) when one is configured. Remote control is a peer-to-peer feature and ends if a session switches to broadcast.
While you are sharing, Peerglass keeps this machine from going to sleep on its own. It cannot stop a lid close or the power button, and it cannot wake a machine that is already asleep — Peerglass cannot be used to reach a computer nobody is sitting at. Locking stops the capture, so the picture pauses and this link stays valid; click Resume when you are back.
Remote control
Allow a viewer to point at your screen and send you prompts. Their pointer shows over the preview above; their prompts land in the inbox below, ready to paste (into a terminal, an editor, anywhere).
Native companion — turn prompts into real keystrokes
By default prompts are paste-only (a browser can't type into your
apps). Run the companion process (see companion/README.md),
paste its pairing token here, and granted pointer, clicks, and prompts
are injected as real mouse and keyboard input on this machine.
