This is very easy to compile and use. It lets you use your linux machine as a wifidisplay for your device/phone etc.
The only thing is it needs gstreamer and systemd. Systemd is just for starting and stopping services, I believe. Im sure that would be easy to modify for someone who knows C and Python. As is, it should run on EasyOS which has systemd installed and some of the Dogs with systemd.
After installing I ran

There is a similar project which casts your linux display to a wifidisplay receiver. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays
