BanDev

BanDev’s open-source portfolio is anchored by Lux, a lightweight Go-based command-line utility that turns Govee RGB and RGBIC light strips into scriptable home-automation peripherals. Designed for power users who prefer terminal workflows, Lux exposes granular control over color, brightness, temperature, animated scenes and scheduling without loading a desktop GUI or mobile app. Typical use cases include binding lighting presets to keyboard shortcuts, syncing bias lighting with sunrise/sunset data, integrating LED notifications into CI pipelines, or batch-adjusting every strip in a room through a single shell script. Because the tool communicates directly with Govee’s local LAN API, it eliminates cloud latency and keeps sensitive device data off external servers, making it popular among privacy-minded tinkerers and DIY smart-home builders. The codebase is cross-compiled for Windows, macOS and Linux, so the same commands can be run from PowerShell, bash or zsh, and the JSON output option allows easy consumption by Power Automate, Home Assistant, or custom Electron dashboards. Releases follow semantic versioning, ship as standalone executables, and carry no runtime dependencies beyond network access. BanDev software, including Lux, is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are sourced from trusted Windows package managers such as winget, always deliver the latest upstream build, and can be queued for batch installation alongside other utilities.
