Description

See PR #1971 for more information.

How much effort would it be to add Windows support. So that in the end you can use solaar in combination with a second software (mine eg.) to create something like logitech flow just better. With better connectivity, debuggability, ... If it is doable, I want to ask if there are some motivated people out there, which would like to help me :)
