TigerVNC is a VNC server and client started in 2009, started as a fork of TightVNC.

Red Hat started this fork because RealVNC was focusing on their enterprise non-open VNC and there had been no update since 2006. This implementation is fully open, with development and discussion done via publicly accessible mailing lists and repositories.

It is focused on performance and remote display functionality^[1]
