Remote Mouse Pointer 🖱️

It is a lightweight C++ desktop application designed for teachers, mentors, and presenters. When students share their screens during online classes or video calls (such as Google Meet, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams), this tool provides a visible, high-contrast visual pointer overlay to easily point out specific elements and guide students visually without taking remote control of their machine.


✨ Features

  • Visual Remote Pointer: Display a clear, custom pointer on screen to direct attention during screen-sharing sessions.
  • Click Diagnostics: Built-in click diagnostic utility (click_diag.cpp) to track and verify screen interactions.
  • Lightweight & Fast: Built using native C++ and CMake for minimal resource usage.
