I even detoured through the macos-side version of the app being written in C so I didn't have to include all the swift build chain stuff. Actually debating refactoring it so the screenshot code is a nif so I can move the logic to elixir

Extremely not hard surprisingly, I'll put a repo up in the next couple of days and I can shoot it your way. Real insight was to use android adb socket instead of their USB comms protocol because the socket isn't limited to 2.0 speed. Theres a noticeable lag in the mouse, but its not bad at all

Seconded!

Yeah, I made my own personal writing app for boox because theirs are so rough. It uses their pen api to write to svg, which I stick into a folder in my obsidian vault so I can view / type up later and have it sync to my other devices.

Same, the writing layer on the other boox devices is pretty good and I miss it pretty hard when I pull out the palma

Been debating seeing what happens if I flush mine. Probs need a new one anyway, but makes it an emergency if it breaks 🙃

I picked this up for @kjpociask.bsky.social a few years back. It’s such a banger.
