This project relies on this capability to make a "fake" USB HID device. It is unclear how that can be accomplished without it. Any thoughts?

I noticed this because my CCIDU2F project uses the kext from this project to allow NFC-only U2F tokens to be usable on desktops.

Any ideas?

From here:

All KPIs in IOHIDFamily are deprecated. Clients should use HIDDriverKit instead.

Unsure how much work that will be.
