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. -

This project was originally designed to provide an open-source replacement for PPJoy. The product, at this point, consists of virtual joystick devices that is seen by the system as a standard joystick but its position-data is written to it by a feeder application. An existing feeder application that takes advantage of this product is SmartPropoPlus. If you are an application writer you can very easily write an application that controls a joystick (e.g. mouse-to-joystick, keyboard-to-joystick). If you are a beginner in device drivers you can take this code and enhance it to support more (or less) axes, buttons or POVs.

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. -

AlienFX Tools
Alienware systems lights, fans, and power control tools and apps
AlienFX Tools is a suite of utilities aimed at controlling lighting, fan, and power behaviors on Alienware systems, directly interfacing with USB or ACPI hardware rather than relying on official drivers. This project supports a broad range of effects and modes, allowing users to customize RGB lighting zones, create and switch profiles based on system states (like power source or running applications), and generate lighting behaviors tied to thermal and performance events. Because it operates at a low level, alienfx-tools can offer faster update rates and more flexible configurations compared to some manufacturer software. It includes both command-line and graphical frontend elements to support different user preferences, making it suitable for automation as well as interactive use. Enthusiasts use it to tailor lighting aesthetics and system responsiveness, especially on systems where official Alienware control panels are unavailable or problematic. -

Synergy Core
The keyboard and mouse sharing tool
This is the open source core component of Synergy, a keyboard and mouse sharing tool. Control your computers with one mouse and keyboard. Control multiple computers using only one keyboard and mouse. Focus on developing software, designing, gaming and remove time switching between operating systems. Throw away the extra keyboards and spend time where it really matters. Simplify your workspace by combining multiple computers into one. Easily copy and paste between computers with no effort at all. Keep your passwords and sensitive data secure with TLS encryption. Key, mouse and data all sent fast and securely, directly over your local network. Advanced customization settings give you complete control of your setup. The next version is being built from the ground up by combining the latest technologies, Node.js and React, with the rock-solid stability of C++. -

ESP3D
FW for ESP8266/ESP8285/ESP32 used with 3D printer
This firmware allows not only to have a cheap bridge between Wifi and serial, but also to have a web UI to configure wifi, to monitor 3D printer and even control it, and to make things easy, UI is fully customizable without reflashing FW. Firmware should work with any 3D printer firmware (repetier/marlin/smoothie ware using GCODE) if the serial connection has a correct setup. I currently use it with my personal flavor of repetier for Due based boards. The web interface files are present in the data directory but UI has its own repository ESP3D-WEBUI. Use GPIO2 to the ground to reset all settings in a hard way, 2-6 sec after boot / not before!! Set GPIO2 to ground before boot change boot mode and go to special boot that do not reach FW. Currently, boot takes 10 sec - giving 8 seconds to connect GPIO2 to GND and do a hard recovery for settings. Complete configuration by web browser (Station or Access point) or by Serial/telnet commands. -

SnapKey
SnapKey: Open Source Alternative to Snap Tap & SOCD
SnapKey is a lightweight, open-source tool that operates from the system tray and is designed to track inputs from the WASD keys, without interfering with any game files. SnapKey's main role is to recognize when these keys are pressed and automatically release any previously engaged commands for them. This guarantees responsive and precise input handling. SnapKey handles the WASD keys by default and lets you rebind them to your liking via the config file. SnapKey: Open Source Alternative to Snap Tap & SOCD Visit SnapKey on GitHub for more information: https://github.com/cafali/SnapKey -
