The Deskflow project was established as the community upstream of Synergy.
Synergy sponsors the Deskflow project by contributing code and providing financial support.
Synergy is an official Supporting Member of KDE e.V., the community behind the Plasma desktop for Linux.
We collaborate with KDE and freedesktop.org (XDG) developers to keep Synergy reliable on Linux.
Synergy is a GNOME Copper Corporate Sponsor, providing financial support to the GNOME Foundation.
We work with GNOME and freedesktop.org (XDG) developers to ensure full Linux compatibility with Synergy.
OpenSSL is used by Synergy and keeps your keystrokes secure over the network.
It allows us to implement secure network communication with TLS.
Synergy is built on Qt which is not just a GUI library, but a powerful cross-platform framework.
Qt allows us to significantly reduce the amount of platform-specific code we need to write.
Corporate responsibility
We believe open source communities create more reliable, better maintained software.
Synergy funds open source bounties, sponsors developers on GitHub, and employs software engineers who contribute to open source. Do you run a company and want to make a difference?
How can individuals contribute?
As well as writing code or donating, there are many other ways to contribute to our upstream projects yourself.
You could report bugs, test new releases, improve docs, suggest features, translate strings, and triage issues.
This way, the downstream Synergy product gets better for everyone with every release.
