What is Drawing Tablet?
🚀 Overview
This project consists of two parts:
Android Client: A dedicated app that captures stylus input (pressure, tilt, coordinates) and renders a low-latency video stream of your PC screen. Rust Server: A lightweight Linux daemon that: Captures the screen using PipeWire (via XDG Desktop Portals). Encodes the video stream using GStreamer (Hardware Accelerated VA-API/NVENC). Emulates a virtual Wacom tablet using uinput to inject pen/touch events into the OS.
The result is a Cintiq-like experience on your Android tablet, entirely over WiFi.
? Features
High-Quality Screen Mirroring: H.264/H.265 hardware encoding. Full Wacom Emulation: Supports Pressure, Tilt, and Hover. Gesture Support: Pinch-to-zoom, Pan, and Rotate support in apps like Krita/GIMP (Server-side gesture handling). Wayland Native: Built for modern Linux desktops (GNOME/KDE/Sway). Auto-Connect: Client remembers your server and handles network interruptions gracefully.
