I want to be able to use a windows / linux application directly in the browser like on turbo.net I tried a lot of things but I can't make the process automatic... It would be necessary for a virtual machine to launch on my server and for the application selected by the user to open by itself, it will then be necessary to be able to send the image of the application to the user so that he can interact with the application while keeping the window resizable, mobile, ect ... But above all, it must be free to prevent my users from making them pay. Anyone have a solution?

PS: sorry it's translated with google translate

What I have tried:

I tried using python to stream the image but can't find any way to automate it...

Maybe you can try to make a PWA (Progressive Web Application), these can run offline in the browser, see: pwa-framework[^]
If you already have a website then PWA Builder might be the easiest way to make a PWA, see: pwa-framework~pwabuilder[^]

If you want to convert a Windows application take a look at Cameyo: desktop-virtualization-solutions[^]

No, i don't want to make my website as an windows app, I want to run an app in my server and make it usable to my user in his web browser, see turbo.net as an exmaple.

I'm afraid I can't quite follow you, isn't that app in your server a Windows application?
Your question was: "How to use a windows / linux application" ...
See the last note about Cameyo, it allows you to run Windows applications in a browser.

Yes, but Cameyo is paying and I want a free solution, i can't even use gmail email to sign up. And I want to launch windows app in my navigator, not convert website into windows app.
