Apps & desktops on the cloud (Beta)
Run full graphical apps and whole operating systems on a streamed cloud desktop — Blender, GIMP, Chromium, Windows, Android emulators, and more.
Run full graphical apps and whole operating systems on a streamed cloud desktop, right inside your taiku session.
Beta — a look at what's possible
Cloud desktops are experimental and availability varies by account. This page is a showcase of what you can run, not a setup guide. Things may change, and not everything shown is enabled everywhere yet.
A remote dev machine isn't limited to a terminal. When a cloud desktop is available, you get a real graphical Linux desktop streamed into your browser — and from there you can run heavyweight creative tools, run a full browser, build and test desktop apps, and even boot entire other operating systems.
Creative and graphical tools
Run desktop-class creative software on cloud hardware, with everything streamed to your browser. No local install, no GPU on your laptop required — as shown above with Blender's full 3D workspace.
GIMP for image editing — open, edit, and export images entirely on the cloud machine.
Browsers and app development
Run a complete browser and develop graphical apps on the cloud desktop, then test them where they run.
A full Chromium browser, useful for testing web apps or browsing from the cloud machine.
Develop and test an Electron desktop app on a Linux cloud desktop — build it and launch the real window without ever leaving the session.
Whole operating systems
Go beyond a single app and stream an entire operating system into your session.
A full Windows desktop running on a cloud machine, streamed into taiku.
An Android emulator — try mobile apps on a real virtual device, no phone needed.
taiku inside taiku
Because a cloud desktop is a real desktop, you can even run taiku itself on it.
