Barrier
Open-source KVM software
Barrier is a software that works just like a KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) switch, which allows you to use a single mouse and keyboard to control several different computers by physically turning a dial on the box to switch the machine you're controlling at any given time. Barrier is able to do this in software, giving you control over different machines by simply moving your mouse to the edge of the screen, or by using a keypress to switch focus to a different system. Barrier was built to be simple and reliable, allowing you to control a different machine by simply using your mouse and keyboard from another. It works on all major operating systems (Linux, Windows, MacOS/OS X), including FreeBSD and OpenBSD. -

Arduino IDE
Arduino IDE library
This repository contains the source code of the Arduino IDE 2.x, which is currently in the beta stage. The Arduino IDE 2.x is a major rewrite, sharing no code with the IDE 1.x. It is based on the Theia IDE framework and built with Electron. The backend operations such as compilation and uploading are offloaded to an arduino-cli instance running in daemon mode. This new IDE was developed with the goal of preserving the same interface and user experience of the previous major version in order to provide a frictionless upgrade. If you need assistance, see the Help Center and browse the forum. If you think you found a vulnerability or other security-related bug in this project, please read our security policy and report the bug to our Security Team. The builds are generated every day at 03:00 GMT from the main branch and should be considered unstable. -

NoteBook FanControl (NBFC)
Cross-platform fan control service for notebooks
NoteBook FanControl (NBFC) is a cross-platform fan control service for notebooks. It comes with a powerful configuration system, which allows to adjust it to many different notebook models. Currently, there are no pre-built releases for Linux, but you can easily build NBFC yourself. In general the NBFC Wiki is the first place to go if you have any questions. If you want to build NBFC from source, the first thing you have to do is to download the source code. You can easily clone the NBFC repository via git. Make sure the Mono runtime + development tools are installed on your machine (Debian based distros: mono-complete, Arch based distros: mono). Config files are an integral part of NBFC, because they define how NBFC interacts with your notebook's embedded controller (EC). The EC monitors your system's temperatures and controls the fan(s). It sits on the motherboard or is integrated into a Super I/O chip & is connected to the Southbridge via the Low Pin Count (LPC) bus. -

Betaflight
Open Source Flight Controller Firmware
Betaflight is flight controller software (firmware) used to fly multi-rotor craft and fixed wing craft. This fork differs from Baseflight and Cleanflight in that it focuses on flight performance, leading-edge feature additions, and wide target support. Betaflight supports a wide range of flight controllers with at least an STM32F4 MCU. You can use nearly any piece of modern hardware out there. Full telemetry and high refresh rate for receivers, camera and VTX control, RGB LEDs, and much more! Run the configurator on any device, whether it is using Windows, MacOS, Linux, or Android. With the Betaflight OSD you can get all relevant flight metrics directly into your FPV video feed. An easy-to-use drag-and-drop configuration allows the placement of values like used mAh and LiPo Voltage readings. Additionally, you can change most firmware settings using stick commands without even removing your goggles. -

OpenTabletDriver
Open source, cross-platform, user-mode tablet driver
OpenTabletDriver is an open-source, cross-platform, user mode tablet driver. The goal of OpenTabletDriver is to be cross-platform as possible with the highest compatibility in an easily configurable graphical user interface. OpenTabletDriver functions as two separate processes that interact with each other seamlessly. The active program that does all of the tablet data handling is OpenTabletDriver.Daemon. The daemon must be started in order for anything to work, however, the GUI is unnecessary. If you have existing settings, they should apply when the daemon starts. The requirements to build OpenTabletDriver are consistent across all platforms. Running OpenTabletDriver on each platform requires different dependencies. Run build.ps1 to produce binary builds to 'bin' folder. These builds will run in portable mode by default. -

Tasmota
Alternative firmware for ESP8266 with easy configuration
Alternative firmware for ESP8266 with easy configuration using webUI, OTA updates, automation using timers or rules, expandability and entirely local control over MQTT, HTTP, Serial or KNX. Unless your Tasmota powered device exhibits a problem or you need to make use of a feature that is not available in the Tasmota version currently installed on your device, leave your device alone - it works so don't make unnecessary changes! If the release version (i.e., the master branch) exhibits unexpected behaviour for your device and configuration, you should upgrade to the latest development version instead to see if your problem is resolved as some bugs in previous releases or development builds may already have been resolved. Single binary firmware. Support for TuyaMCU. Increase PWM channels to 16. Initial support for ESP32S3 with support for 38 configurable GPIOs. -

Macs Fan Control
Control fans on Apple computers
Macs Fan Control is an open-source repository supporting the development of Macs Fan Control, a powerful macOS utility that gives users granular control over the thermal behavior of Apple computers. While the GitHub repo primarily tracks issues, feature requests, and localization files for the application, the utility itself allows real-time monitoring and control of fan speeds based on temperature sensors, helping users balance cooling performance and acoustics. It supports a wide range of Macs, including recent Apple Silicon models with M3/M4 chips, and can adjust fans to respond to specific temperature sources, not just default system profiles. Users commonly employ this tool to keep systems cooler under heavy workloads or to reduce fan noise in quiet environments. Macs Fan Control bridges gaps left by the default macOS thermal management, especially for users running demanding software or older machines with less efficient heat dissipation. -

libusb
A cross-platform library to access USB devices
libusb is a library for USB device access from Linux, macOS, Windows, OpenBSD/NetBSD, Haiku and Solaris userspace. It is written in C (Haiku backend in C++) and licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 or, at your option, any later version. libusb is a C library that provides generic access to USB devices. It is intended to be used by developers to facilitate the production of applications that communicate with USB hardware. Using a single cross-platform API, it provides access to USB devices on Linux, macOS, Windows, etc. No special privilege or elevation is required for the application to communicate with a device. All versions of the USB protocol, from 1.0 to 3.1 (latest), are supported. libusb is abstracted internally in such a way that it can hopefully be ported to other operating systems. -

ESP8266 Arduino Core
ESP8266 core for Arduino
ESP8266 Arduino Core is the Arduino core for the ESP8266 WiFi chip. It brings support for the ESP8266 chip to the Arduino environment, allowing you to write sketches, use familiar Arduino functions and libraries, and run these directly on ESP8266 without the need for an external microcontroller. ESP8266 Arduino core comes with libraries that enable it to perform a number of things. It can communicate over WiFi through the use of TCP and UDP; it can set up HTTP, mDNS, SSDP, and DNS servers; and it can perform OTA updates. ESP8266 Arduino core works with SD cards, servos, SPI and I2C peripherals. -
