laserDESK 2026

Workflow-centric laser processing UI (Svelte Kit) and backend (RTC6 via Ethernet Remote Interface). The backend supports mock RTC and UDP Remote Interface (Phase C); see backend/README.md.

Public demo (after you enable GitHub Pages + Releases):

• Web app: https://holgerschl.github.io/laserDESK2026/ (project site; repo should be laserDESK2026 under holgerschl)
• Usage / installation (same site): …/laserDESK2026/usage/
• Backend binaries: Releases on github.com/holgerschl/laserDESK2026 (laserdesk_backend.exe, laserdesk_backend-macos.tar.gz — macOS arm64 / Apple Silicon)

Until the repo is published, build and run locally (see below and Phase F in docs/implementation-plan.md).
