Neko

Overview

n.eko is an innovative app designed to provide a streaming solution for watching content with friends, particularly for those who find traditional platforms insufficient. Developed as a response to the discontinuation of rabb.it, this application utilizes Web RTC technology to stream desktops within a Docker container. It aims to create a fun and social environment where users can enjoy watching anime together, despite the challenges posed by internet limitations and technical difficulties with other streaming services.

While n.eko may not fully replicate the extensive features of its predecessor, it introduces some unique functionalities that enhance group viewing experiences. With its straightforward setup and user-friendly interface, n.eko caters specifically to the needs of those who want to connect and share viewing experiences with friends in a seamless manner.
