I remember trying the demo version of VRidge ages ago, my phone back then wasn't really ready for it but still played a couple of levels of the original DooM without too much issues. Source: 11 months ago
That's years after Riftcat/VRidge, iVRy and AMD ReLiveVR did it and finally Airlink only happened because VirtualDesktop was stealing the show, an as far as I know only existed because this engineer started it on their own, PC compatibility was very very low on Metas TODO list.

One way is with Vridge / Riftcat, which is the only program I know of which allows you to use the Flow with SteamVR.

From what I know there aren't many options for this use case, and those that I know of (like OSMC or Plasma Bigscreen) all run on ARM devices like Raspberry Pi, but not x86/64.

You could probably configure the system to automatically start up whatever UI you prefer to make it more seamless. Source: about 2 years ago
