DeskAccess is a Go-based tool that provides app-scoped remote access to specific services like RDP, SSH, and VNC on a machine, using invite-based pairing and multiple P2P backends instead of a full VPN. It targets Raspberry Pi and small office setups, emphasizing narrow access over broad network exposure.

Target audience: devops, system administrators, home lab enthusiasts
