⚙️ How It Works

Laze consists of three main components working in harmony:

┌─────────────────┐         UDP/TCP         ┌─────────────────┐
│   Mobile App    │ ◄─────────────────────► │  Desktop Server │
│    (Flutter)    │       Low-Latency       │     (Tauri)     │
└─────────────────┘                         └────────┬────────┘
                                                     │
                                                     ▼
                                            ┌─────────────────┐
                                            │ Controller Core │
                                            │     (Rust)      │
                                            │ Mouse, Keyboard │
                                            │   Simulation    │
                                            └─────────────────┘

1. Mobile App (Flutter): Captures your touches, gestures, and keyboard input. Sends them as optimized binary packets.
2. Desktop Server (Tauri): A lightweight, native app that manages connections and provides a user-friendly dashboard.
3. Controller Core (Rust): The engine. It receives commands and simulates mouse movements, clicks, scrolls, and keystrokes on your OS using enigo.

� Why "Laze"?

The name Laze is a nod to the lazy comfort that inspired this project.

It all started with watching movies from bed. No TV subscription, just a laptop connected to the TV and free streaming sites. But every time the movie ended or something needed adjusting, it meant getting up, walking over to the computer, and breaking that cozy bubble.

Laze was built to solve exactly that—so you never have to leave the comfort of your bed (or couch, or hammock) to control your computer. It's the ultimate lazy solution for the ultimate lazy lifestyle.

"Laze" — because getting up is overrated.

🤔 Why Build Another Remote App?

There are dozens of remote control apps out there. So why build another one?

Because I wanted complete control.

Most apps are locked down—you get what they give you, and that's it. Laze is different. It's built to be yours:

• Run any command. Literally any terminal command, right from your phone. Shut down, sleep, launch apps, run scripts—if you can type it, Laze can run it.
• Customize everything. Create shortcuts with custom names, icons, and actions. Make it work exactly the way you want.
• No subscriptions. No limits. It's open source. Fork it, modify it, extend it. The possibilities are endless.

This isn't just a remote—it's a toolkit.
