Sounds like it's VNC that pretends to be open source but has a shady website that wants you to pay millions to use it.

You might get the same functionality running playwright with novnc on a remote server because that is all that this is, a remote headless browser, connected to a node server that communicates to the headless browser with the Chrome DevTools Protocol over a websocket, with a <canvas> element embedded in the clients browser which sends all captured events like mousemove and mousedown to the node server, and lastly renders a stream of images from the headless browser into the client browser inside the <canvas> element.

No, no no that’s just for the pro version. You can use this normal version fine as long as you respect that Polyform license.

That license is certainly not open source. Redistribution and commercial use are entirely off the table with Polyform Strict.

Had to admit I came to the same conclusion when I read this part of the readme:

> The NC license permits "use by any charitable organization, educational institution, public research organization, public safety or health organization, environmental protection organization, or government institution is use for a permitted purpose regardless of the source of funding or obligations resulting from the funding."

But on reading the license, personal noncommercial use is fine too. It would have helped me if that info had been in the readme!
