  • SimpleBLE - Cross-platform BLE library for Windows, Linux and MacOS/iOS

    Internally, SimpleBLE is using CoreBluetooth on MacOS, WinRT on Windows and SimpleBluez/SimpleDBus (two other components that I wrote providing low-level access to DBus as well as Bluez abstractions). The library is extensively tested in terms of functionality as well as memory/thread sanity and I do feel confident about it being production ready. Tiny caveat: Most tests I run are manual, although I have plans for a proper hardware-in-the-loop CI pipeline if I get enough people interested / funding.
