Amp adds remote desktop viewing and control for macOS and Linux runners
Overview
Amp releases desktop viewing and control for its macOS and Linux runners, letting users see and control a runner's desktop.
Amp says this is useful for testing native apps it builds, such as iOS apps.
Users turn it on with Share This Mac's Display under Settings › Runner in the macOS app, or by starting the runner with amp --no-tui --desktop. Amp says the client connects directly to the runner, which is nearly instant when the runner is on the local or a nearby network.
