I also find it confusing.

Is this just a docker-compose setup, or did you write the code? I see some go code in there, did you write the WebRTC server stuff yourself? If so, how come it's not published as a normal package which doesn't require docker?

I'm asking because I'm interested in remote desktop solutions, but in many cases I don't want/need docker, so any novel remote desktop utilities are interesting to me.

This repository features all custom writen code. Go backend and Vue frontend. It is publised as a container because of lots of dependencies and the overall environment setup.

Although, I think about publishing the core of it as a package, fully fledged alternative to noVNC. Where X server desktop can be shared using WebRTC technology to a browser.

I think that would be nice! There are a lot of ways to approach this (I've used xpra, vnc, remote X, xrdp...) and there are pros/cons to them all. It might be useful for more people without the docker requirement :)
