[Proposal] Project Rewrite: Aggressive Client Adaptation & Monolithic Architecture / 重写提案：深度适配客户端与单体架构回归

[lantongxue]

提案概要 / Proposal Summary

CN: 为了提升项目的性能、简化部署并更好地服务于 RustDesk 生态，我提议对本项目进行一次彻底的重写 (Rewrite)。
EN: To improve project performance, simplify deployment, and better serve the RustDesk ecosystem, I propose a complete rewrite of this project.

核心变更 / Key Changes

1. 更激进的客户端适配 / Aggressive Client Adaptation

CN: 我们将不再受限于通用的 API 设计模式。新的架构将针对 RustDesk 客户端的特性进行“激进”的深度适配，优先考虑客户端的交互体验和连接效率，以实现最佳的配合度。
EN: We will no longer be limited by generic API design patterns. The new architecture will focus on "aggressive" deep adaptation tailored to RustDesk client characteristics, prioritizing interaction experience and connection efficiency to achieve the best synergy.

2. 放弃前后端分离设计 / Abandon Frontend-Backend Separation

CN: 为了降低系统复杂度、减少中间层开销并简化用户的部署流程，建议放弃目前的前后端分离架构。我们将转向更紧凑的集成式设计（或服务端渲染），使项目更加轻量化。
EN: To reduce system complexity, minimize middleware overhead, and simplify the user deployment process, I suggest abandoning the current separated frontend-backend architecture. We will shift towards a more compact, integrated design (or Server-Side Rendering) to make the project lighter.

3. 采用 PHP 生态进行快速开发 / Rapid Development with PHP Ecosystem

CN: 为了追求极致的开发速度和迭代效率，本项目将重写并迁移至 PHP 生态。利用 PHP 成熟的生态系统、丰富的库支持以及便捷的部署特性，我们能以最低的成本实现功能的快速交付与维护。
EN: To pursue extreme development speed and iteration efficiency, this project will be rewritten and migrated to the PHP ecosystem. Leveraging PHP's mature ecosystem, rich library support, and convenient deployment, we can achieve rapid feature delivery and maintenance with minimal cost.

招募开发者 / Call for Developers

CN: 这是一个重大的架构调整，我们需要更多力量的加入！如果你对 RustDesk 生态感兴趣，熟悉相关技术栈，并认同上述重构方向，欢迎在评论区留言或直接报名加入开发。
EN: This is a major architectural shift, and we need more hands on deck! If you are interested in the RustDesk ecosystem, familiar with the tech stack, and agree with this refactoring direction, please leave a comment below or sign up to join the development.

Hi, I came across this project a few days ago while looking for a way to set up a free self-hosted RustDesk server that would offer at least some basic features.
I found several similar projects; they all seem to have just a single developer. Some appear to be focused on maintaining maximum compatibility (as this one seems to be), others seem to have rebuilt the server side while maintaining compatibility with the RustDesk client (as https://github.com/UNITRONIX/BetterDesk appears to do), and others have also modified the client side (which I think is best avoided unless you have multiple developers and a large community that uses and supports the project).

Have you tried reaching out to people from other projects to see if you can join forces to achieve better results and increase the project’s chances of success?

There have been other projects that achieved good results by joining forces, such as memtest86+ and one of its forks (PCMemTest); both were led by a single developer, but by joining forces, they achieved significant improvements.

In this case, joining forces with RustDesk doesn’t seem feasible to me, as a quick look suggests they’re determined to keep the OSS server stripped of features to maximize profits from the Pro version, and they appear to be shutting down any discussion regarding potential changes or improvements of the server part. However, perhaps we could combine multiple forks to achieve better results.

@Fantu Thank you for posting today! I was literally working on getting this thing compiled, but having some struggles with it and wondering if it was really going to fit what I wanted. And being a bit hesitant with the potential rewrite that's coming up.

Because of your post I looked into betterdesk and was able to compile and get it up and running very quickly. It's clean and looks very well developed. I would definitely recommend reaching out to them and seeing if the hopes this repo has for a re-write would be met or could be joined with that one.

The only thing it's missing, and I know there is a repo out there that does it, is the custom client generator to brand your own client versions of rustdesk.

有没有搞错用PHP？怀旧？建议用go语言

Hello, I'm sorry to bother you like this. I'm a developer who has just built a management panel for RustDesk, and I'd like to invite you to try it out.

RustDesk Console uses a front-end and back-end separation architecture, with Umi + Ant Design for the front end and NestJS for the back end. It features a clean, modern interface and is fully compatible with the RustDesk client. Most of the management functions are already supported, and more features are being developed step by step. Our goal is to build a management panel that matches or even surpasses rustdesk-server-pro.

The project currently lacks visibility and has few users. We sincerely hope that more developers and users will join us to help improve this project. We believe that with the power of the community, we will eventually build the perfect management panel.

Please visit our repository page and give us a star - that would be the greatest support for us. Thank you!

您好，很抱歉这样打扰您。我是一名开发者，刚刚为RustDesk开发了一个管理面板，诚邀您试用。

RustDesk管理面板采用前后端分离架构，前端使用Umi + Ant Design，后端采用NestJS。其界面简洁现代，与RustDesk客户端完全兼容。目前大部分管理功能已支持，更多功能正在逐步开发中。我们的目标是打造一个与rustdesk-server-pro相当甚至更优的管理面板。

该项目目前缺乏关注度且用户寥寥。我们诚挚希望更多开发者和用户加入我们，共同助力提升该项目。我们相信，凭借社区的力量，我们终将打造出完美的管理面板。

请访问我们的仓库页面并给我们一个星标——这将是对我们最大的支持。谢谢！
