Trying to get raw HID working to get vim modes to trigger qmk events and layers.
On the computer, write a program (the "host" or "server") that talks over the raw HID protocol. It is open ended how you do this, but IME both the Python pyhidapi and C hidapi were simple enough to get something started. The trickiest part might be getting the program to run with the permissions to talk the raw HID protocol (at least on Linux, there was some udev rule to set up). Read the documentation for these libraries for details about how to get set up.

Has anyone figured out a way to detect what mode you are in, in vim, using qmk?
now I'm trying to figure out what to do with the next step for building my own host. Am I supposed to put this test file in my qmk code? or run it on my computer as it's own separate program? https://github.com/libusb/hidapi/blob/master/hidtest/test.c

FFI and Dynamic Arrays
I used ffigen to get the bindings from hidapi.h and cleaned up quite some of the resulting output to make it Dart compatible. Quite some typedef and some minor stuff.

I figured out the problem with JoyconLib! The hidapi.dll file was broken so I replaced it with a new file from https://github.com/libusb/hidapi/releases and not it's working.

[Desktop] Small tool for Logic Keyboard (Windows/macOS/Linux)
Inspired by https://askubuntu.com/questions/699138/logitech-k380-bluetooth-keyboard-make-function-keys-default and https://github.com/libusb/hidapi, it's almost re-implementation of hidapi actually, with dart:ffi calling the syscall directly.

RK R87 not working out of the box
If that doesn't work, then yeah, RMA it. I forgot if there was a firmware update waiting on my unit when I used it. But there was an update for the software to control the RGB lighting. I don't recommend using that though. The community-made, Rangoli is much better.
