Library to simplify USB device monitoring

USBMonitor is a versatile cross-platform library that simplifies USB device monitoring for Windows, Linux and MacOS systems. It enables developers to effortlessly track device connections, disconnections, and access to all connected device attributes.

With USBMonitor, developers can stay up-to-date with any changes in the connected USB devices, allowing them to trigger specific actions whenever a USB device is connected or disconnected. By ensuring consistent functionality across various operating systems, USBMonitor removes the need to address platform-specific quirks, inconsistencies, or incompatibilities, resulting in a smooth and efficient USB device management experience. The uniformity in functionality significantly enhances code compatibility, minimizing the risk of code issues or unexpected breaks when moving between platforms.

At its core, USBMonitor utilizes pyudev (for Linux environments), WMI (for Windows environments), and the I/O Registry (for MacOs environments). Handling all the low-level intricacies and translating OS-specific information to ensure consistency across all systems.
