reMouseable is a project that transforms the reMarkable tablet into a mouse for computers, enabling users to write and draw on digital whiteboards. It is compatible with both reMarkable 1 and reMarkable 2 tablets and is considered stable. Installation varies by operating system: for Windows, users need to download and rename the executable file; for OSX and Linux, similar steps apply with additional commands to make the files executable.
