OpenTabletDriver is a capable open-source project with broad hardware and platform coverage. MockTab takes a narrower approach: one platform, one vendor, native Swift, no background daemons, no kernel extensions. The smaller scope means a simpler configuration surface and no background services."

A handful are confirmed on real hardware; the rest rely on Linux kernel and OpenTabletDriver references and may need further testing. MockTab does not cover tablets from other vendors. A few post-2020 Wacom models have experimental registry entries that need further verification. See mocktab.org/hardware.html for the full list."
