Apache Guacamole
Access your computers from anywhere via your web browser

Apache Guacamole is a clientless remote desktop gateway that lets users access their computers through a standard web browser without installing any client software. It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH, and can be hosted in the cloud to provide flexible, location-independent desktop access. The project is fully open source under the Apache License 2.0 and maintained by an active developer community.
Guacamole acts as a server-side gateway that translates remote desktop protocols (RDP, VNC, SSH) into a web-based HTML5 interface accessible from any browser.
