* Package name : deskflow Version : 1.17.0+r1 Upstream Contact: Nick Bolton <n...@nbolton.com> * URL : https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow * License : GPL-2 Programming Lang: C++ Description : Mouse and keyboard sharing utility Deskflow is a free and open source keyboard and mouse sharing app formerly known as Synergy Community Edition. Use the keyboard, mouse, or trackpad of one computer to control nearby computers, and work seamlessly between them. Deskflow is oriented cross-platform and supports all major operating systems, including Windows, macOS, Linux, and Unix-like BSD-derived. There is already similar package already on Debian - Barrier. But the upstream of Barrier is not actively maintained anymore [2] therefore forked as Input Leap. [3] It seems that Input Leap still have significant limitations (no stable builds) so prefer packaging Deskflow which supports Wayland and has kindly configuration wizard feature because it is also upstream of commercial fork of Synergy and we can expect continuous maintenance somewhat. Deskflow provides similar UI like Barrier so transition to Deskflow is easy.
