This repository contains the source code used to build Synergy 1 and the Core for Synergy 3. It's based on the upstream Deskflow community project, which is sponsored by Synergy.
If you're a customer, you generally don’t need to build Synergy yourself as we provide pre-built, tested releases. However, if you're a customer looking to build Synergy from source, contact us so we can help with that. If you're a developer looking to contribute to an open source community, join us in our Deskflow project.
Synergy is a stable, supported commercial product, Quality Assurance tested, security-reviewed, and backed by our team. Deskflow is the upstream project where the open source community, including Synergy engineers, prototype and iterate on new features. Synergy is your production-ready solution; Deskflow is for open source contributors and early adopters.
For supported customers, reach out to our support team and we’ll triage and track issues internally. If you're contributing to the community project, use Deskflow issues to report bugs or request features.
We welcome contributions, but our community development happens upstream in Deskflow. That’s the best place to propose changes and collaborate with the wider community. Changes flow downstream to Synergy once they have matured enough and are ready for customer usage.
We regularly port stable features and fixes from Deskflow into Synergy. This involves QA, integration testing, and compliance review. Critical bug fixes are fast-tracked. For specific timelines on particular bug fixes and features, please get in touch.
Deskflow is a development sandbox, suitable for testing, prototyping, and contributing, but not for production use. Unlike Synergy, Deskflow doesn’t carry any guarantees around quality, support, or compliance.
This model lets us move fast without breaking things. Deskflow empowers rapid community-driven innovation. Synergy delivers a stable, supported experience to customers.
