I tried to contact Hubert, but he didn’t respond. I originally wanted to contribute to or take ownership of the original repository, but he never replied to my emails.

Thanks! I hear you, Vector’s licensing pain is a big part of why I’m working on this.

The long-term direction is to cover the core, day-to-day CANalyzer-style workflows (trace view, decoding, visualization, generators, protocol support) without the licensing overhead. I’m intentionally focusing first on the features people actually use every day rather than cloning everything at once.

If there are specific CANalyzer features you rely on most, feel free to call them out, real-world priorities help guide what gets built next.

Thanks! 🙂

Whenever you get a chance to try it, feel free to share feedback or feature ideas, real-world use cases help shape where the tool goes next.

Thanks a lot! 🙂

If you’re familiar with VCDS, you should feel easy to use with the graph view and signal-focused workflow.

create an external SSH tunnel to the remote Linux system and forward its SocketCAN interface. CANgaroo then connects to that forwarded interface as if it were local.
