dream-cheeky-windows-driver

Nodejs API for controller dream cheeky missile launcher that works on windows. This is a reinforcement of guillaumedelre's dream-cheeky-thunder-driver library, with adjustments to run on windows and improvements on led and execute commands features. It should work on linux as well, since the kernel check is not necessary for the device.
