The full story
The maker uses a teleprompter, which needs the image flipped left to right, and found no remote desktop or screen mirroring app that could do it. So they built a Windows app that streams their desktop to a tablet, mirrored. They had a working version with touch, a microphone and dictation in a couple of days.
Claude wrote most of the code while the maker directed it and tested on real hardware and real calls. Two bugs took real work to find: an audio cable running at two different speeds, and Windows Explorer crashing because of something the app was doing.
