Hello @LukasBombach Thanks for the great work. Do you need any help/tester ?

[LukasBombach]

Thanks! I'd be happy to get feedback of things that work / do not work when I can release this :)

[readeral]

Good to know you're keen for testers @LukasBombach - I'm likewise keen to help and/or test.

[vekexasia]

Hello @LukasBombach thanks for the solid progress on this. Do you have any ETA for when this might be tested?

[buildog]

@LukasBombach is it already testable on Raspbian ?
EDIT:
Progress state https://github.com/LukasBombach/sblendid/projects/3 (write, read, notify isn't yet supported)

[LukasBombach]

@buildog that is correct, sorry, it's not ready yet. I am having a hard time finding the time right now, but seeing the people commenting here motivates me. I am working on this in tiny steps right now.

@vekexasia sorry no ETA as things are tight right now. I am expecting twins soon and then there is, of course, Corona.

@LukasBombach really appreciate the incremental (but monumental) efforts you're putting in. If there's any way you can farm out small sections that doesn't create more work for yourself, please do let us know.

Hi, why this is now closed? Is it abandonned?

[LukasBombach]

@atrovato I am actually rebooting the project

https://github.com/LukasBombach/web-bluetooth-node

I am trying to imlpement web-bluetooth for node, but this time I will cut the BS and will go native instead. By this I mean, for macOS, I am actually implementing a native node module using Objective-C++, for Windows and Linux I will do the same using pure C++.

These native node modules will be very thin and just proxy JavaScript calls to the operating systems' APIs. On top top of that I will implement the web-bluetooth spec for node js and on top of that I will implement Sblendid.

But for now you should probably watch https://github.com/LukasBombach/web-bluetooth-node instead of this PR
