| <!-- High-level description --> |
| <div class="description"> |
| <p>Apache Guacamole is a <strong>clientless remote desktop |
| gateway</strong>. It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and |
| SSH.</p> |
| |
| <p>We call it <em>clientless</em> because no plugins or client software |
| are required.</p> |
| |
| <p>Thanks to HTML5, once Guacamole is installed on a server, all you |
| need to access your desktops is a web browser.</p> |

| </div> |
| |
| <!-- List of features --> |
| <ul class="features"> |
| <li class="html5"> |
| <h2>Access your computers from <em>anywhere</em></h2> |
| <p>Because the Guacamole client is an HTML5 web application, use of your computers is not tied to any one device or location. <strong>As long as you have access to a web browser, you have access to your machines.</strong></p> |
| </li> |
| <li class="cloud-desktop"> |
| <h2>Keep your desktop in the cloud</h2> |
| <p>Desktops accessed through Guacamole need not physically exist. With both Guacamole and a desktop operating system hosted in the cloud, you can combine the convenience of Guacamole with the resilience and flexibility of cloud computing.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li class="apache"> |
| <h2>Free and open source</h2> |
| <p>Apache Guacamole is and will always be <strong>free and open source software</strong>. It is licensed under the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>, and is actively maintained by a community of developers that use Guacamole to access their own development environments.</p> |
| <p>We feel this sets us apart from other remote desktop solutions, and gives us a <a href="/open-source/">distinct advantage</a>.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li class="documented-api"> |
| <h2>Built on a well-documented API</h2> |
| <p>Apache Guacamole is built on its own stack of core APIs which are <a href="/api-documentation/">thoroughly documented</a>, including basic tutorials and conceptual overviews in the <a href="/doc/gug/">online manual</a>. These APIs allow Guacamole to be tightly integrated into other applications, whether they be open source or proprietary.</p> |
| </li> |
| <li class="commercially-supported"> |
| <h2>Commercially supported</h2> |
| <p>For enterprises, dedicated commercial support is also available through <a href="/support/#commercial-support">third party companies</a>.</p> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
