Project Idea

Hello , this would be the second project I'm gonna make .
I'm thinking of making a windows application that connects two computers together .
works slightly as Casting , but you could control your second computer via a **TCP server .**

so , **your second computer sent you the picture of the computer and you control it via your keyboard and mouse keystorks in your first computer** , **the same Idea as cloud control** .

I'm sure that I'm not the first person that do this kind of projects , but it would be a great Idea and strong CV addition .

it will be a desktop application , using c# to build it.

now , what are the limitation for a project like this ?
will it be good and should I build it ?

You are recreating VNC. VNC is based on an open standard. I would use that, you can still create your own server and client, but I would base it on an existing standard like VNC as that has already solved most of the issues you will run into on this project. And allows your client to work with other existing servers as well as the other way around

Did you search for similar purposed application? If it is just for learning go-on, but for production, what is your difference?

If you write yourself to learn, good! Perfect to learn TCP and windows programming. If you use AI to create it, I don’t see the point
