Hi Dran,

The motivation was purely because of a lack of proper control for Bluetooth on these closed-source OSes like Windows and macOS.

This is for users who want to control Bluetooth within the terminal, seamlessly.

For Windows, I have yet to see any CLI/TUI tools that do this. There were a set of old command-line tools which I downloaded and tried a long time ago, but it didn’t work properly for me, I do not know about others.

On macOS, blueutil exists, which is a very old project (but constantly updated) and one which I hold in high regard, but again, it is a CLI.

What bluetuith can do, among other things, is monitor Bluetooth states across all adapters, devices and operations (like connection, pairing, discovery, file transfers) etc. and present it neatly (I think 😊) within the terminal itself, basically trying to replicate the same experience on Linux.

Basically the point is, you don’t need the Bluetooth GUIs anymore on these platforms when you can control Bluetooth right from the terminal with a few keystrokes.
