    I briefly checked its code - wrapping it for reasonably convenient use with Arduino IDE would be not that simple. USB is quite abstract protocol and a particular device type requires a matching handler code. You can find example for keyboard HID here: https://github.com/abcminiuser/lufa/tree/master/Demos/Device/ClassDriver/Keyboard - as you can see, there is not so small amount of code for handling it: even though all really hard work is done inside the library, you still need to make a lot of proper calls to make it work.

    For AVR devices I've always liked LUFA because it has tons of examples to get you started and works great even on low-end devices like the AT90USB162 (16MHz 8-bit cpu with 512 bytes of SRAM).
