## Detailed info

## What is DisplaySwitcher?

DisplaySwitcher is a desktop application for Linux, macOS, and Windows that switches monitor video inputs and transfers text and files between computers.

## What DisplaySwitcher does

DisplaySwitcher enables software-based monitor input switching across Linux, macOS, and Windows systems using the DDC/CI (Display Data Channel / Command Interface) standard.
