  • barrier

    Open-source KVM software

    • Since synergy is currently asking money for their main product, I've changed to fork called barrier ( https://github.com/debauchee/barrier ).

    But +1 for the recommendation, so easy to set up and it works so well it feels like magic when using for first time.

  • synergy-core

    Open source core of Synergy, the cross-platform keyboard and mouse sharing tool (Windows, macOS, Linux)

    • This is indeed cool. A lazier and less efficient solution for those that don't want to take apart the computer is synergy (https://symless.com/synergy and https://github.com/symless/synergy-core) which lets you share keyboard/mouse and clipboard over multiple computers.
