OpenRGB is a cross-platform, vendor-agnostic RGB lighting controller that frees you from proprietary motherboard or peripheral utilities. It talks directly to supported devices and exposes a unified interface for setting colors, animations, and per-LED layouts across brands. The app supports running as a standalone GUI, a headless server, or a networked client so multiple machines can synchronize lighting. Profiles make it easy to save and switch complex scenes, and a graphical LED map helps craft precise patterns. Power users can automate everything via a command-line tool and an SDK that third-party apps can target. The project’s goal is straightforward: one tool to orchestrate all your lighting without the bloat, drivers, or background processes that often come with vendor software.

Features

  • Wide hardware coverage with per-LED control and effect modes
  • Profile save and load for fast scene switching
  • SDK and CLI for scripting, integrations, and automation
  • Client–server mode to sync lighting across multiple PCs
  • Graphical LED layout editor for custom patterns
  • No manufacturer software required on supported devices
