Hrvach/Deskhop: Fast Desktop Switching Device
No one has mentioned ShareMouse yet? (https://www.sharemouse.com/) In my experience it has worked way better than Synergy. I switched after getting fed up with the synergy developers not responding to various multi-year old bugs that made the software unworkable for me (e.g. https://github.com/symless/synergy-core/issues/5992).
The only downside is that you have to "renew maintenance" to continue receiving updates to ShareMouse after a year. But I haven't done that yet and it still works fine for me.
- Suggestions for a single input 4K KVM over IP?

Help me create a seamless LAN with a WAP on the end of a switch
I want to be able to do things like Synergy, Steam Link, Unified Remote, and Media Servers between any of these devices, with as little added latency as possible (especially important for steam link)

Linux VNC viewer not displaying MacOS with multiple desktops (single monitor)
i've got several fedora linux machines running and sharing their monitors via synergy (https://symless.com/synergy) , all controlled by the keyboard/mouse on the primary synergy server.

Talon Voice in Visor?
Not sure if this is what you're asking, but I've been using Synergy Pro (Windows, macOS, Linux) for years, and it works seamlessly. It lets you share your mouse and keyboard across multiple systems (with or w/o encryption), copy and paste between computers, etc.

How can I use a MacBook Air as a screen and Mac mini pro as a computer?
I've got an M2 MacBook Air
Per the Advanced... screen under Displays in System Settings, you can link to a Mac or iPad to control it a la Synergy[0]
I have not done it myself, but I do not see why you could not do it with a current-gen Mac Mini

Is there such thing as a Dual Hub that let's me use the same peripherals (keyboard, mouse, usbs, headphones) between my Mac mini and PC?
I previously used a software solution to do the same thing and it was actually really good, better even. It might have been this software but I have to check to be sure - https://symless.com/synergy - as I’m not at my laptop right now.
- $1500 WFH expense -- essential OE devices?
- Best KVM (or similar solution) for two MacBook Pros (2015 and 2021)?
- Looking for a convenient and cheap setup to juggle work and private PC

Release Radar • February 2024 Edition
The team at Electron have been faithfully shipping new releases almost every single month. I think they had Christmas off 🤔. This popular framework has developers writing cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. The latest update depreciates some process events, and added new modules, APIs, methods, and more. Read into all the changes in the Electron release notes. This month, Electron also introduced a new formal RFC process.

The IDEs we had 30 years ago and we lost
VS Code has been crashing at launch in Wayland since more than eight months ago:

Design Systems with Web Components
So we talked a lot about the Atomic Design Principle, but you could just use that in any system and start creating. You could have Angular components, React Components, and Vue Components. But if you notice these don't easily work Everwhere. So the solution is to use Web Components because the modern browser can already understand these, and any Front-End framework can then utilize these components. You can use Electron for desktop (Slack, VSCode), PWA for both Android and iOS, and across all browsers Can I Use.

How I got Wayland, Vulkan, and hardware acceleration working with Figma on Fedora 39.
I'm noticing a significant boost in performance, crisper text, and better power savings. The only shortcoming is that the window which Figma will run on will lose its shadow. This is due to a technical limitation with frameless windows on Linux.

Building Apps with Tauri and Elixir
For the longest time, building desktop apps was a daunting task to web developers. That is, until technologies like Electron made creating these apps more approachable to a wider audience. Today, we’ve got a wide array of native applications built with solutions like Electron, Tauri, Capacitor, and many more. While these are great solutions, sometimes configuration can be tricky and the applications we create can become somewhat bloated in terms of memory usage.

Capturing at Speed of Thought
Turns out, there is an issue with the electron window not returning focus correctly on mac - https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/5495. The trick to solving is to treat quick capture as a screensaver. When closing, you hide it by setting the opacity to 0 and sending hide: command to the first responder.
