New promising Z-Wave library: node-zwave-js

Development
1

@VonOx for information, I found a new Z-Wave library in pure JS! :o

This library is brand new, but very promising

That’s great! Compilation is done :partying_face: (just need to implement/test now)

This was more of an FYI post. In my opinion, the library is still far from having the history of Open-Zwave:

  • Which devices are covered by this library?
  • Will this library be maintained in the future? What is the project’s business model? What is the motivation of the contributor(s)?

In my opinion, it’s more of a library for the years to come if it is still maintained in the years to come :slight_smile:

there are already quite a few devices

Let’s test it then :slight_smile: But for this kind of project, which is quite titanic to manage, you really need to be sure that the project won’t be abandoned, otherwise it’s a lot of development to do everything again each time!
