+# libvncd

+
+A VNC server providing a custom framebuffer.
+
+You can inherit from the `VncdConnection` class as per the sample, and respond to the simple framebuffer and input callbacks. This design allows using the VNC/RFB protocol as a wrapper for arbitrary graphical tasks.
+
+## Features
+
+- Supports raw, zlib, ZRLE, and TightPNG image encoding
+- Supports optional VNC authentication
+- Single-threaded asynchronous design supporting multiple simultaneous clients
+- Tested working with TightVNC Viewer 2.7 and RealVNC Viewer 4.1
+- Tested compilation with Visual Studio 2013, but cross-platform/compiler ports should be trivial
+- Designed to be connected to a custom framebuffer implementation
+
+## License
