# Objective
The `headless_renderer` example is meant to showcase running bevy as a
headless renderer, but if run without a display server (for example,
over an SSH connection), a panic occurs in `bevy_winit` despite never
creating a window:
```rust
bevy_winit-0.14.1/src/lib.rs:132:14:
winit-0.30.5/src/platform_impl/linux/mod.rs:
neither WAYLAND_DISPLAY nor WAYLAND_SOCKET nor DISPLAY is set.
```
This example should run successfully in situations without an available
display server, as although the GPU is used for rendering, no window is
ever created.
## Solution
Disabling WinitPlugin, where the above panic occurs, allows the example
to run in a fully headless environment.
## Testing
- I tested this change in normal circumstances with a display server (on
macOS Sequoia and Asahi Linux) and behavior was normal.
- I tested with no display server by connecting via SSH, and running the
example (on Asahi Linux). Previously this panics, but with this change
it runs normally.
## Considerations
- One could argue that ultimately the user should not need to remove
`WinitPlugin`, and instead bevy should only throw the above panic when
the application first attempts to create a window.
