Mstsc.js is a pure javascript Microsoft RDP (Remote Desktop Client) client using nodejs, node-rdpjs and socket.io. It allows you to connect to any terminal server compatible application, through a web browser (optimized for firefox, but compatible with chrome and internet explorer 11 too).

How does it works ?
$3
The frontend application uses socket.io and canvas for binding with mstsc.js backend. The front-end is in charge of bitmap decompression through rle.js file. This file is generated by Emscripten from rle.c which comes from rdesktop source.
$3
The backend application uses nodejs, express and socket.io as the web server. The main goal of the backend is to be a proxy between the web browser and the terminal server. It uses node-rdpjs for its rdp client.
