One Keyboard, One Mouse — Control Every Machine Seamlessly
Tired of switching between your Mac, Windows PC, and Linux boxes? Beamer lets you use a single keyboard and mouse across all your machines on the same network. Push your cursor off the edge of one screen and it flows right onto the next — just like a multi-monitor setup, but with real computers.
✨ What It Does
- 🖱️ Cross the edge — push your pointer through the screen border and it arrives on the other machine at the same position
- ⌨️ Keyboard follows you — type natively on any connected machine with smart key remapping (Cmd↔Ctrl, Option↔Alt)
- 📋 Clipboard travels — copy text and images on one machine and paste them on another instantly
- 🎯 Mac gestures on Windows — swipe your trackpad for Task View, desktop switching, and more
- 🔒 Your network only — no cloud servers, encrypted P2P connection, paired with a simple 6-digit code
⚡ Quick Setup
- 🍎 macOS: Download the .dmg, drag to Applications, grant permissions and relaunch
- 🪟 Windows: Run the installer — approve SmartScreen warning with "More info" → "Run anyway"
- 🐧 Linux (Flatpak):
flatpak install --user https://flatpak.kalkmancode.co.uk/beamer.flatpakref💬 FAQ
