The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Trying to use a Leonardo as a switching device for my KVM. Nothing happens when I plug the USB into the KVM's keyboard port.
I don't think the built-in keyboard library identifies itself as "boot capable" in the HID descriptor, which is necessary for simpler keyboard devices. Try using NicoHood's HID library with the "BootKeyboard" object.

I made my own keydeck! So happy with it, the multimedia keys and encoder are so useful!
Looks great! How did you handle the programming? Did you follow a guide, or did you implement the Arduino HID Project library?

Can I send data to my computer to programmatically control the mouse using an esp8266?
Skip the esp then and pick up any dev board supported by the HID project.

After some help from the kind people of this subreddit I managed to get my first project working with some workarounds! (vJoySerialFeeder was the solution)
You can make it act like a HID - which is what I assume many people have done - with custom drivers like this one. https://github.com/NicoHood/HID

Making an DIY gaming wheel
You can use Arduino HID Project which allows to reprogram atmega16u2 which performs USB communications on Uno. Then you can upload HID sketch on 16u2 and "normal" code on atmega328 which would do everything and send desired wheel state via serial. On 16u2 side you will parse that serial command from 328 and translate it into HID message

HID - LED status lights beyond 0x07
I'm trying to grab the "microphone muted" LED status from the HID library, but it seems like the library only supports a select few statuses out of the box: https://github.com/NicoHood/HID/issues/151

Little brother saw me upgrading and cleaning my laptop, bough me a kit. (help in description)
Nano (atmega328) doesnt have native USB support (just a USB to UART converter). UNO also doesnt have native USB support, but has a atmega16U2 on board. You can flash this chip and build a USB HID bridge -> https://github.com/NicoHood/HID/

Legacy ESP32 HID CDC projects
It's unfortunate that https://github.com/cnlohr/espusb stopped with ESP8266

Nodemcu ESP8266 Mechanical Numpad
Rule of thumb: never say something isn't possible on the ESP-8266 without confirming that cnlohr hasn't already done it.

Reading USB Gamepad with ESP8266?
There is a software only library for USB1.1. I have not tested it but it should be usable. https://github.com/cnlohr/espusb

Just a little tip to make your ESP32 kinda work like a regular USB device
Apparently someone did something similar for the 8266! https://github.com/cnlohr/espusb

Mico: A PDM to USB Microphone Based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040
Better tooling/libraries? I would imagine that shoehorning audio support into espusb [0] is going to be quite a chore.

After having an ESP embedded in my laptopscreen and one in my left butt cheek i am looking for a(male) USB-A ESP32(LilygoT7 or minikit style)board for direct plug in laptop. I looked on Hackster and Tindie but counldnt find any.I know of the ATMEGA/W600 and wifi only boards but want ESP WITH GPIO's.
This: esp8285 usb
