Containerised Steam Remote Play

The goal of this project is to containerize Steam in a way that allows enabling and using Steam Remote Play. By running Steam inside a container with VNC access, you can log in once, enable Remote Play, and turn your machine into a cloud gaming service. This setup is designed to run on Fedora CoreOS (or Fedora Silverblue) with a AMD GPU. This project aims to:

• Run Steam in a headless container.
• Allow VNC access to perform the initial login and configuration.
• Expose the necessary ports for Steam Remote Play.
• Provide a repeatable, isolated, and portable deployment method using Podman or Docker.

With this, you can transform your machine into your own personal cloud gaming host.
