sserver VS kvm-switch

did not abandoned it since i am using for myself but didn't put any effort into marketing either other than mentioning it on hn few times https://github.com/newbeelearn/sserver . It's hHeadless server for hosting courses and associated blog/static content from private github repository.

I am working on creating a hosting server that can cater to landing page+blog+selling digital content with minimal maintenance overhead.

Beta version is ready here https://github.com/newbeelearn/sserver

I am looking for following

working on adding e-commerce functionality to my simple hosting server https://newbeelearn.github.io/sserver/

if you want to self host, give my product a try https://github.com/newbeelearn/sserver. It will auto-sync your static site from git repo.

I built something that will take care of the publish part but not the static site generation part here https://github.com/newbeelearn/sserver. Right now it only has one user i.e. me :-)

./sserver -token "$GITHUB_AUTH" -repo "https://github.com/newbeelearn/sserver.git?ref=gh-pages"

My plan is to add e-commerce functionality to it so that users can sell digital content i.e. books/videos/courses etc. through single config file in their github repository where the content is stored without needing to change their workflow.

If you would like any specific feature please let me know in the comments or create issue in the repository. Looking forward for your feedback.

With my COVID obsession of live streaming while writing code, I ended up building something a little more elaborate. https://github.com/timgws/kvm-switch

It doesn't use DDC commands direct to the monitor(s), instead swapping it for a HDMI matrix combined with a traditional KVM for swapping around inputs smoothly when you roll your mouse over the edge of different operating systems.

The switching client runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux (if you use X).

I had the same issue with this device. I ended up writing some code that you could run on a machine to operate the switching via the RS232 port: https://github.com/timgws/kvm-switch/

Bonus for adding 'glide and switch' functionality, so you can move the mouse to the edge of the screen and it would jump the input to the next display in your layout. It's like a hardware version of Synergy.

Very finicky device, but if you don't touch it - and you don't use any of the shortcuts - it works.

The proverb 'necessity is the mother of invention' made me build a solution for sharing a keyboard and mouse between multiple devices.

Synergy/Barrier is not horrible, but I find the latency a little painful.

Ended up getting an industrial HDMI switch, with a KVM. Built a server in Go that connects to the serial port of all the devices.

A companion client that runs on all the machines tells the server when the mouse moves to the edge of the screen, so the USB inputs can be switched to the correct computer. Basically, it allows you to have multiple computers connected, to multiple displays, sharing one keyboard and mouse. (You can define layouts on the server, so the displays can move around on the matrix HDMI switcher).
