This device helps to manage servers or workstations remotely, regardless of the health of the operating system or whether one is installed. You can fix any problem, configure the BIOS, and even reinstall the OS using the virtual CD-ROM or Flash Drive. Unlike software-based remote management, you don't need to install any software on the controlled computer for non-intrusive control. </p> <p align="center"> <a href="https://github.com/ThomasVon2021/blikvm/stargazers"> <img alt="GitHub Stars" src="https://img.shields.io/github/stars/ThomasVon2021/blikvm?color=ffcb2f&label=%E2%AD%90%20on%20GitHub"> </a> <a href="https://discord.gg/9Y374gUF6C"> <img alt="Discord Server" src="https://img.shields.io/discord/943534043515977768?color=0&label=discord%20server&logo=discord"> </a> <a href="https://qm.qq.com/q/V0qWcbNoIi"> <img alt="QQ Group" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/QQ%E7%BE%A4-join-12B7F5?logo=tencentqq"> </a> </p>

With this money, we will be able to buy new hardware (Raspberry Pi boards and other components) to test and maintain various configurations of BliKVM, and generally devote significantly more time to the project.
