BusKill App
This is the codebase for our cross-platform (CLI and) GUI app for BusKill. It works in Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
BusKill is a laptop kill cord that can trigger your computer to lock or shutdown when it's physically seperated from you.

BusKill runs in Linux, Windows, and MacOS.

Misconceptions
Q: Self-destruct?!? Will this brick my computer?
A: No. The BusKill app does not have the ability to harm your hardware and our app ships with non-destructive triggers only.
