## What it is
Aurora is an open-source Windows utility that unifies RGB lighting control across multiple peripheral brands (Logitech, Razer, Corsair, Cooler Master, etc.) and devices. It adds native and mod-based RGB lighting support for games like CS2, Dota 2, and League of Legends, plus system overlays like CPU usage and audio visualizers.

## Use cases
- sync RGB lighting across Logitech, Razer, and Corsair devices
- add RGB lighting effects to games that lack native support
- display CPU and memory usage on my keyboard
- control Nanoleaf and Philips Hue lights from one app
- create custom keyboard lighting layers and effects
- show game events like health or ammo as keyboard lighting

## When to choose
- you own RGB peripherals from multiple brands and want unified control
- you want game-reactive lighting for titles without official RGB support
- you want a free, open-source alternative to vendor RGB suites
- you want system monitors or audio visualizers rendered on your keyboard

## When to avoid
- you only use one brand's devices and are happy with its official software
- you need Linux or macOS support - Aurora is Windows-only
- you need actively developed features - the latest release dates to late 2023
- you want lighting control for unsupported or exotic devices
