SolarFlare vs upstream history#

Note

When triaging a bug, check whether it reproduces on upstream Sunshine. Fork-specific issues (Web UI, solarflare_t keys, pacing) belong to SolarFlare.

Upstream Sunshine ecosystem#

SolarFlare stays compatible with Moonlight and much of the Sunshine ecosystem. The independent LizardByte/awesome-sunshine catalog is not maintained or endorsed by SolarFlare and may assume upstream packages, Docker images, or UI behavior. Install SolarFlare via the Quickstart; use fork tunables from Configuration; get clients at moonlight-stream.org. Test community tools (companion apps, scripts, themes) targeting the Moonlight protocol before production use.
