    C# wrapper library for Raw Input

  • pinvoke

    Discontinued A library containing all P/Invoke code so you don't have to import it every time. Maintained and updated to support the latest Windows OS.

    Hooks are a low-level Win 32 API and are not directly exposed from the BCL, so you either need to write your own P/Invoke code (maybe using something like https://github.com/dotnet/pinvoke)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • globalmousekeyhook

    This library allows you to tap keyboard and mouse, detect and record their activity even when an application is inactive and runs in background.

    I suggest getting inspired or using something ready-made like: https://github.com/gmamaladze/globalmousekeyhook/issues (this is the first library that I found, maybe there is something better)
