Your devices.
One computer.

An Omarchy desktop, across the screens you already own.

A different kind of personal computer

Change screens.
Keep your running session.

Your computer lives in AWS. Your Mac, iPad, iPhone or Android becomes a window into it. Switch devices while it runs, and your files and open applications are right where you left them.

Cloud Window brings the setup, start and stop controls, and device pairing together. The desktop is Omarchy: a full Linux environment you can make your own.

The demo shows one working computer across multiple devices. Responsiveness depends on your network and distance from the server.

  1. 01

    A computer in the cloud

    Omarchy runs on an AWS virtual machine, with a persistent disk for your saved files.

  2. 02

    A private connection

    Tailscale connects your devices over an encrypted network. You choose which devices can reach it.

  3. 03

    The screen you already have

    Moonlight streams the desktop and sends your input. The website manages the computer; viewer apps display it.

yourself.

For people comfortable with AWS who want control over their setup. You create and manage the computer in your own account, with AWS billing you directly.

Developer preview. The guide is available. A reviewed installer and clean image are in preparation; image setup currently needs assistance.

A few practical things

Before you
open the window.

Which devices can I use?

Connect from Mac, iPad, iPhone and Android using Moonlight and Tailscale. The current preview runs in AWS Oregon. A keyboard is useful for desktop work; the optional Mac companion adds display and input helpers.

What does it cost?

With DIY, AWS bills your account for running time, outgoing traffic and storage. Use the cost estimator to explore your usage and learn how billing works. Streaming can use substantial traffic. Stopping the computer stops compute charges, but retained disks and backups still cost money. Joining the hosted waitlist is free. Hosted pricing and usage limits will be shared before you decide whether to use the service.

What happens when I stop the computer?

Saved files remain on disk. Open applications, unsaved work and background jobs end when the VM stops. Disk persistence is not a backup.

The current preview stops after an hour without a desktop stream and asks for a four-hour check-in. SSH jobs do not override that shutdown; configured usage limits can stop it sooner.

Who can access my desktop?

Your Tailscale rules control network access, and Sunshine pairing authorizes each Moonlight viewer. The connection is encrypted. Cloud providers, and the operator of a hosted computer, retain administrative access to the machine.
