Hey HN! I built HIDConsole, a cross-platform HID device debugging tool.
What it does:
- Scan and connect to HID devices
- Real-time data monitoring with optional timestamps
- Send hex data with validation
- Configurable frame size
Tech stack:
- Frontend: React 19 + TypeScript + TailwindCSS
- Backend: Rust + Tauri 2 + hidapi
- Runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux
I built this because I needed a simple tool to debug HID devices and existing options were either too complex or not cross-platform. The UI is clean and focused on the core debugging workflow.

Would love to hear your feedback!
