Veyon is a free and open source software for monitoring and controlling computers across multiple platforms. Veyon supports you in teaching in digital learning environments, performing virtual trainings or giving remote support. Please refer to the official Veyon Administrator Manual at for information on the installation and configuration of Veyon. Please refer to the official Veyon User Manual at for information on how to use Veyon. NOTE: If you want to build a .deb or .rpm package for this software, instead of the provided cmake command, you should use: If some requirements are not fullfilled, CMake will inform you about it and you will have to install the missing software before continuing. You can now generate a package (.deb or .rpm depending what system you are in). This PPA contains official Veyon packages for Ubuntu suitable for use both on desktop computers and ARM boards (e.g. Raspberry Pi). Even though only packages for LTS releases are available they should work for subsequent non-LTS releases as well. Veyon and its documentation are translated at the Transifex platform. Please go to and join the corresponding translation team. Please DO NOT submit pull requests for modified translation files since this would require manual Transifex synchronizations on our side.

Veyon (Virtual Eye On Networks) is a free and open source software for monitoring and controlling computers across multiple platforms. Veyon supports users in teaching in digital learning environments, performing virtual trainings or giving remote support.
The program has been developed as a free alternative to commercial classroom management solutions. It enables teachers to view and control computer labs and interact with students. Veyon is available in many different languages and provides numerous features supporting teachers and administrators at their daily work. Veyon can be used transparently in heterogeneous environments. This means a teacher computer running Linux can easily access student computers running Windows and vice versa.
