Novnc + https. You need:
Then direct browser to web-based novnc client url. Select websockets port, type your vnc server password. Also if you need just terminal, without gui consider using of gotty. Its about 30 mins to setup everything.
@zilch you should do a tutorial
Thanks, zilch, I'm going to try this combination as well. I have been struggling to set up a Linux based remote desktop for some time. All solutions so far have been a PITA compared to Windows, where this kind of stuff just works, including proper window scaling.
RealVNC has always worked best for me (Clipboard sharing and File transfer is seamless)... the Free version or Free Trial should suffice you
Is x2go an option at all? I know you may need to "install" client side software (apart from the one time server side setup/configuration) to use it but it's still worth looking into.
There is (supposedly, linked anyway) a browser plugin from their website - I've not used it - so no experience.
Otherwise, I'd say it's a nice option to use to connect to a (Linux) VPS running somewhere (and you can leave your stuff "running").
Also if you have dynamic ip at home you'll need to update your dns records remotely at cloudflare. There are a lots of tricks for that
