node-red: the node-serialport does not work on Termux
Everything works very well, except for one detail: the node-serialport doesn't work in Android+Termux environment. You can't use RS232, MODBUS, RS422, or RS485 !!! See here the open issue,

Using usb-detection with electron v4 on intel mac
Strangely enough it does package fine with electron-builder but does not work in dev mode. The same happens when I try to use https://serialport.io/ which is also another module where you could achieve device detection.

Trying to get access to the USB device in Electron app
We use node-serialport instead of the WebSerial API, since it was only recently that Electron supported WebSerial permission overrides to make things like a 'devices screen' viable. The WebBluetooth APIs are still in a situation where you have to do polling shenanigans to get a full device list. I've found the mutated permissions system leaves a lot to be desired when debugging, whereas the NAPI modules are a lot more straightforward.

I've been streaming hardware driver development using node. If you've ever wondered what's involved when talking to hardware, but were put off by needing to know C or kernel internals, you might enjoy this
It really depends. The stuff I'm doing in this video for example is writing a driver stack for a device called the Bus Pirate. Communication is done over serial (which is easy in node with the serialport library). The bus pirate is a device that allows you to talk to other devices over different protocols, including SPI, I2C, and OneWire (as well as bit banging, where you control some electrical signals directly any way you want using software). So while it's not something you'd do directly in production, you can actually test communication with devices in JS in a fast, iterative, interactive way without having to use a microcontroller. You can actually figure out all of your design decisions there and port your code to the microcontroller later if you're building some kind of embedded system device, potentially saving a lot of time and debugging.

Lychee never loads

Electron to native hardware
We use node-serialport for USB serial communications. It's included in the transport manager renderer process. The installation guide and docs should be good enough to get you started. Hopefully serialport has prebuilds for the combination of system and electron version you're trying. We had to setup an internal prebuilds system and CDN for our app since we'd often find ourselves ahead of the prebuilt versions for node-serialport. Alternatively you can build from source.

Finished my build - Please criticise it.
With DDR5, you can tell a kit is hynix a-die if its xmp settings are >6600MHz (but I believe it is still possible that you get m-die). Witth DDR4 you have to look at the subtimings. If a kit has tight subtimings like 3200MHz CL14-14-14-34 @ 1.35V or 4000MHz CL19-19-19-39 @ 1.45V then it is guaranteed b-die. Also for b-die, there is this quite useful web app: https://benzhaomin.github.io/bdiefinder/

There's loads of cheaper b-die, though not sure if your region has most common options, see here: https://benzhaomin.github.io/bdiefinder/

XMP Profile is causing display driver timeouts
XMP is not guaranteed to give you stable settings, it only sets the primary timings and voltages the rest are set by the motherboard. If that kit is not on the boards QVL it may be setting timings that C die can not handle. I doubt you have B die there are no 3600 C 18 kits listed on https://benzhaomin.github.io/bdiefinder/

32GB DDR4 B-Die kits. Do they still exist?
I have been looking for an 32GB stick or an 2*32GB kit. One of my friends linked me to Benzhaomin's bdiefinder. After inputting the needed details the "only" kit to "still exist" was "G.SKILL GSkill 64GB (2KIT) 3200M TridZ DDR4 RGB DC" F4-3200C14D-64GTZDC . Unfortunetly it is out of my price range as the price listed on the website is 2113,77€/kit (includes VAT 24%) at the time of writing this post.

Best timing/speed for 5800x3D
There is this tool used for finding Samsung B-die, which also lists rank. It's the only database I know of that has rank listed.

Best RAM for Ryzen 5900x?
Also, for your title question: try to grab some Samsung B-die set to 3600Mhz. That's the de facto standard for fast memory as AM4 comes to a close.

looking to upgrade my desktop any tips?
I'd specifically look for this set, G.Skill Trident Z F4-3200C16D-32GTZA. I pulled this from the DDR4 B-Die finder https://benzhaomin.github.io/bdiefinder/. I used this back when I was on AM4 and Samsung B-die were generally the best you could get if you want tighter timings, stability, voltages. If you have a Microcenter near you you can find them for $90.
