## What it is
A repository distributing prebuilt binaries of Synergy, a keyboard and mouse sharing tool for devices connected over a network, along with build scripts and documentation. It is no longer maintained since Synergy was forked into Deskflow, which now offers official binaries.

## Use cases
- share one keyboard and mouse across multiple computers over the network
- download prebuilt Synergy binaries for Windows, macOS, or Linux
- build Synergy from source with ready-made build scripts
- get a portable Synergy executable without purchasing a license
- set up a software KVM between my desktop and laptop

## When to choose
- you need a specific older Synergy binary not available elsewhere
- you want build scripts and documentation for compiling Synergy Core yourself

## When to avoid
- you want an actively maintained tool - use Deskflow instead, the official fork with CI builds
- you need official support or the latest Synergy features
- you expect bug fixes or new platform packages

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: developer-tools, deployment
- domain: cross-platform, developer-tools
- platform: windows, cross-platform
- tags: synergy, kvm, binaries, keyboard-mouse-sharing, deskflow, portable-executable, macos, linux
