Petal - Open Source Pair Programming with Low-Latency Screen Sharing

Show HN: Petal, open-source CoScreen/ScreenHero finally free

Petal is an open-source pair programming tool that offers low-latency, high-resolution screen sharing and remote control. It lets you share individual windows that appear as movable, resizable windows on your desktop, with labeled user cursors and instant remote input. Multiple users can share simultaneously, and persistent rooms like 'eng-sync' let you join with one click. Petal runs on Mac and Windows, with Linux support coming soon. You can use Petal Cloud for zero-config setup, self-host with LiveKit for data control, or fork and build your own version. It's free and ideal for remote teams seeking seamless collaboration.
