GTK4−BROADWAYD

NAME

gtk4-broadwayd − Broadway display server

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

gtk4−broadwayd is a display server for the Broadway GDK backend. It allows multiple GTK+ applications to display their windows in the same web browser, by connecting to gtk4−broadwayd.

When using gtk4−broadwayd, specify the display number to use, prefixed with a colon, similar to X. The default display number is 0.

gtk4−broadwayd :5

Then point your web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8085. Start your applications like this:

GDK_BACKEND=broadway BROADWAY_DISPLAY=:5 gtk3−demo

You can add password protection for your session by creating a file in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/broadway.passwd or $HOME/.config/broadway.passwd with a crypt(3) style password hash. A simple way to generate it is with openssl:

openssl passwd −1 > ~/.config/broadway.passwd
