Package Exports

zoomino

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (zoomino) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Join a Zoom meeting and enjoy

As soon as you start or join a Zoom meeting, the Arduino syncs with the mute/unmute state of Zoom and switches the right LED on.

You can use the buttons on the board or the built-in Zoom controls to mute and unmute yourself and the LEDs will adjust accordingly.

Plug/Unplug the Arduino

If you leave Zoomino run in the background, it should detect when the Arduino is connected and disconnected and behave accordingly, setting up and disposing the serial connection and protocol.

Allow the terminal to control your computer

Zoomino uses AppleScript to access the Zoom controls and periodically check whether it's muted or unmuted. For this reason, macOS will probably ask you to allow it to contol your computer using accessibility features.

You can check exactly what Zoomino does with AppleScript here (muteUnmuteScript and isMutedScript).

Known issues

Zoomino needs to be run manually from the terminal. If you want to run it as a service, you will have to configure it yourself.
