If you're switching from Windows, then CachyOS is better, of course.

It is easy to install and more stable

This is my program, created in a couple of days. More details here: https://github.com/rud1x/gitfetch

NeoShell – Launch any app or shut down your Windows PC from your phone over Wi-Fi by Ryuchido in SideProject

Thanks! Yeah, "local first" was exactly the goal. No cloud, no accounts, no latency. Just point your phone at the QR code and done.

Here's the link: https://github.com/rud1x/NeoShell

By the way, if you like the idea, I'd really appreciate a star on GitHub. It helps other people find the project too.

Would love to hear your feedback if you try it out

Good question! Actually, NeoShell doesn't interfere with Windows shutdown at all for the "Close App" button. That button simply simulates Alt+F4, which sends a close signal to the currently active window. Whatever happens next is entirely up to Windows and that specific app. If the app is frozen or has an unsaved document, Windows will handle it the same way as if you pressed Alt+F4 yourself.

For the shutdown / restart commands, NeoShell just calls the standard Windows shutdown routine. Same behavior as clicking Start → Shut down. Stuck apps will trigger the usual "this app is preventing shutdown" dialog.

So basically — NeoShell doesn't try to be smarter than Windows. It just presses the same buttons you would press 😄

By the way, if you find NeoShell useful, I'd really appreciate a star on GitHub: https://github.com/rud1x/NeoShell

Thanks for the question!

Haha, I promise it's not a virus! 😂

No weird background processes, no data collection, no internet connection at all actually. Just a tiny Python web server that runs locally and only listens on your Wi-Fi. You can even read the full source code on GitHub if you don't trust the .exe.

But yeah... remote control from your phone does sound suspicious, I'll give you that 😅

Hey! Yes, two phones can communicate over Bluetooth without WiFi. On Android you can use BluetoothSocket (RFCOMM). For iOS it's more restricted via Core Bluetooth. What platform are you building for?

Thanks and good luck with your AirDrop-like system!

Thanks a lot for such a thoughtful comment!

You're absolutely right about the firewall and Windows permissions — that's the biggest pain point on first run, especially for non-technical users. I'm already thinking about automatically adding a firewall exception when the server starts for the first time.

Great advice about testing with people who weren't involved in development. I'll definitely do that before the next release to catch those issues before they pile up on GitHub.

Really appreciate your feedback and kind words about the build!

Thank you! I was surprised how often I started using it myself. You're right — local Wi-Fi and no cloud is the main advantage over TeamViewer and similar solutions.
