Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built Cntrl Bridge because I was tired of needing heavy remote desktop software just to pause Spotify or see if my PC was overheating while I was in another room.
I wanted something simple: A local API for my computer.
I originally built a prototype in Go, but recently rewrote the entire thing in Rust + Tauri v2. It's now super lightweight (<5MB), fast, and reliable.
What you can do with it:
Stats: Stream real-time CPU/RAM usage via WebSockets.
Media: Control Spotify/System audio (Play, Pause, Volume) from your phone or Pi.
Power: Remote Hibernate, Sleep, or Shutdown.
Secure: Secured with API Keys and IP Whitelisting.
For Developers: It comes with a typed React SDK (@cntrl-pw/sdk) so you can build your own custom "Stream Deck" or dashboard in minutes (I run mine on a Raspberry Pi).
It's 100% Open Source. I'd love to hear what you think! 🚀
