DLNA is going to be your best bet, but it's such a deep and convoluted rabbit hole. There's a lot of ways to configure a setup.
Or use Miracast, AKA WiDi, Smart View, SmartShare if you just want to mirror a screen.
Miracast is not the same thing as WiDi and anyway it's just another bunch of competing proprietary protocols except for screen casting instead of streaming.
intel's WiDi software supported Miracast, which is a standard.
They're all "standards", yet no two TVs will work the same (if at all) — even when they're the same make as the phone.
I setup miniDLNA once, many years ago and it just kept working. Downside is that I completely forgot how it's set up.
The trouble for me was always getting people to use the controllers. I had some success with some family members using bubbleupnp on their Android phones. But the separation between sources, renderers and controllers is a little confusing for non technical people
