CLUSTER MACOS-TOUCH-USB · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-15
USB Touchscreen macOS Utilities
This cluster consists of macOS utilities that repurpose USB touchscreens, translating touch input into mouse events or mapping them to a second display. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as no members have source dates prior to 2026-08. Among the members, macos-touchscreen leads in traction with one star, while the others have none.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
