Perplexity Computer ports a Windows keyboard app to native Rust on Linux
What happened
Aravind Srinivas describes a user's project in which Perplexity Computer ported a Windows-only mechanical keyboard app with no Linux support or documentation to a native Rust app for Linux. Computer downloaded the binary in its cloud sandbox, decompiled it with headless Ghidra, and read the code to understand how it drives the keyboard.
