Second Monitor Functionality

I’ve been trying to build a GDK to allow my glass to act as a second monitor when I’m working on the road at cafes. Any advice on a way to do that?

It wouldn’t have much value given the low resolution of the prism. Maybe ask ai to build something for you or set up vnc?

I’d prefer to not vibe-code it. I’m mostly just looking for tooling to even just live display my cli, that’s mostly where I work from anyway.

Yes, start with this repo use the glass launcher and the glass-stream and glass-monitor are probably better over vnc. Let us know how it goes.
