In their own words
Greenlight
Greenlight is a free, open-source client for Xbox Cloud Gaming and streaming from Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles. It carries console video and audio, with gamepad and keyboard controls; rumble is supported on xCloud. An online friends list shows which friends are currently online. Greenlight is made with JavaScript and TypeScript, and runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Its WebUI can also make the client available over a network to devices using Chromium-based browsers. Downloads are offered as Flathub installations and precompiled release binaries. The V2 release is in maintenance mode: its developers plan critical bug fixes but no new features. Version 2.4.0 changed authentication from XAL to MSAL and added English, Russian, and Ukrainian localization; German was added in version 2.4.2. The application is reported to work on Steam Deck, with some small bugs and side effects. Greenlight says it is not affiliated with Microsoft, Xbox, or Moonlight.
