# Vagon Application Streaming

## What is Application Streaming?

[Application Streaming](https://vagon.io/streams/features/application-streaming) is an on-demand software distribution method where the application itself is streamed inside the browser with no need to install the application locally. With this method, applications can be accessible on any device, without any hardware limitations real time.

In addition to well-known interactive streaming solutions like Unreal Engine Pixel Streaming and Unity Render Streaming, all legacy applications can be streamed with [application streaming technology](https://vagon.io/blog/what-is-application-streaming) and make accessible without limitations.
