Plover<ref>{{cite web| url= https://www.openstenoproject.org/plover/ |title= Plover Steno Software |publisher = Steno knight | access-date = 2012-10-02}}</ref> is a free, open-source, cross-platform program intended to bring real-time stenographic technology not just to stenographers, but also to hobbyists using anything from professional [[Stenotype]] machines to low-cost [[NKRO]] gaming keyboards. It is available for [[Linux]], [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], and [[macOS]].

Joy2chord is a chorded keyboard driver for Linux. With a configuration file, any [[joystick]] or [[gamepad]] can be turned into a chorded keyboard. This design philosophy was decided on to lower the cost of building devices, and in turn lower the entry barrier to becoming familiar with chorded keyboards. Macro keys, and multiple modes are also easily implemented with a user space driver.<ref>{{cite web|url = http://joy2chord.sourceforge.net/ | title = Joy2chord |publisher= Source forge | access-date= 2011-10-24}}</ref>
