The earlier "render the shell with a custom script" was a hack. The real issues were a version matrix and a missing server target: - TanStack Start's start-plugin-core peer-requires Vite >= 7; on Vite 6 the build's prerender/post-build buildApp plugin hook silently doesn't run (Vite 6 lets a config-level builder.buildApp suppress plugin buildApp hooks; Vite 7 runs both). Pinned Vite ^7 + @vitejs/plugin-react ^5 (v5 ↔ Vite 7; v6 needs Vite 8 / vite/internal). - Added @tanstack/nitro-v2-vite-plugin with the `bun` preset — the server/deploy target. `bun run build` → .output/ (bun-runnable server + .output/public). `bun run start` = `bun run .output/server/index.mjs`. - Full SSR instead of SPA mode: SPA-shell prerender points its preview server at the old dist/server/server.js path that Nitro relocates, breaking the build. The Nitro server renders the shell per request; React Query fetches client-side after hydration. - Nitro routeRules proxy /api/** → PUNKTFUNK_MGMT_URL (default 127.0.0.1:47990), so the browser stays same-origin (bearer token rides along, no CORS). Toolchain is now Bun (package manager + runtime): bun.lock replaces pnpm-lock.yaml; scripts/prepare/start use bun. Validated live: bun build → .output, bun server SSR-renders the console on :3000 and proxies the API (health/host return through it). tsc clean.

punktfunk
A ground-up low-latency desktop streaming stack, built Linux-first, with a shared Rust protocol core and native clients per platform.
punktfunk is a placeholder codename. The bet: ship a Linux virtual-display streaming
host that speaks the existing Moonlight protocol (every Moonlight/Artemis client works
day one), then break the ~1 Gbps FEC wall with a GF(2¹⁶) Leopard-RS transport as a
negotiated extension. See docs/implementation-plan.md.
Status
| Milestone | State |
|---|---|
M1 — punktfunk-core + C ABI |
✅ done & tested (FEC, packetization, crypto, session, punktfunk_core.h) |
M0 — pipeline spike (wlroots→PipeWire→NVENC→file→punktfunk-core) |
✅ done & verified on NVIDIA (RTX 5070 Ti / driver 595) |
| M2 — P1 host → stock Moonlight | 🟡 capture+encode landed in M0; pairing/RTSP/vdisplay pending |
| M3 — measurement harness | 🟡 tools/loss-harness runs; latency-probe scaffolded |
| M4 — P2 transport + Rust client | 🟡 GF(2¹⁶) core done; punktfunk-client-rs scaffolded |
| M5 — Apple client | 🟡 macOS first light: HEVC on glass + input over punktfunk/1 (clients/apple) |
punktfunk-core is complete and verified: it builds and its full test suite (FEC recovery,
loopback round-trip under loss, property tests, and a C ABI harness) passes on
macOS/aarch64. M0 is done: punktfunk-host captures a headless wlroots output via the
ScreenCast portal + PipeWire, encodes it with NVENC, writes a playable H.265 file, and
round-trips every access unit through a punktfunk_core host→client session (see
docs/linux-setup.md). M2 is in flight: the GameStream control plane (gamestream/) and
the management REST API (mgmt.rs, OpenAPI spec in docs/api/) are implemented; the
remaining Linux host backends (KWin/Mutter virtual displays, libei input) are
#[cfg(target_os = "linux")] seams — defined and compiling, implementations pending.

Build & test
cargo build --workspace # green on Linux and macOS
cargo test --workspace # unit + loopback + proptest + C ABI harness
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets
cargo run -p loss-harness # FEC loss-resilience sweep (no network needed)
bash crates/punktfunk-core/tests/c/run.sh # standalone C-ABI link+round-trip proof
The C header regenerates from crates/punktfunk-core/src/abi.rs on every build (cbindgen via
build.rs) into include/punktfunk_core.h.
Design invariants
- One core, linked everywhere. Protocol/FEC/crypto/pacing live in
punktfunk-coreexactly once, exposed over a stable, versioned C ABI (punktfunk_abi_version(),PunktfunkConfigcarries its ownstruct_size). - No async on the hot path. The per-frame pipeline uses native threads only;
tokio/quinnare gated behind the off-by-defaultquicfeature (control plane only). - FEC is the wall-breaker. GF(2⁸) (≤255 shards/block) for Moonlight compat; GF(2¹⁶) (≤65535 shards/block, SIMD, O(n log n)) to push past ~1 Gbps.
