X11 forwarding

X11 forwarding is a method that allows a user to run graphical applications (with windows, menus, and screens) on a remote computer server and display them on their local device. It securely transmits the visual interface and user input between the remote server and the local machine over an encrypted connection. This enables users to interact with remote applications as if they were running locally, without needing to install those applications directly on their device. It’s commonly used by system administrators and developers to access and manage remote systems efficiently while maintaining security.
