    General-purpose WebSocket modem for PICO-8

  • p8modem is a way to interact with WebSocket servers by sending and receiving packets with a maximum size of 128 bytes each. It only works when your PICO-8 program is deployed as a web application, because JavaScript is used to read/write the PICO-8's GPIO memory and relay packets along the WebSocket connection. For more information, including details on how to integrate p8modem into your own PICO-8 programs, you can find the GitHub repository at: https://github.com/joshiemoore/p8modem

  • Pinput

    Discontinued Extended gamepad support for PICO-8 and WASM-4 (moved to Codeberg)

  • I solved the problem of getting access to GPIO memory on all platforms for Pinput a while back, to implement extended gamepad support. Adapting it to implement simulated shared memory or some kind of PICO-flavored network device shouldn't be too hard.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • neutralinojs

    Portable and lightweight cross-platform desktop application development framework

  • this is very nice!, Now I'm wondering if there is enough here to communicate with https://neutralino.js.org/ which can do more heavy lifting.
