The ThunderScope project is nearing the point of launching a campaign. Testing seems to be going well. It is only an oscilloscope at this point but there are possibilities for a lot of added capability. The ngscopeclient project supports the ThunderScope which is how I came to know about ngscopeclient. There is a discord channel where you can follow along with the development progress.

Thank you @sslupsky and @artag for pointing ngscopeclient out !
I spent some time playing with it and it's a very impressive software :-+
It surely isn't as beginner-friendly as Sigrok/Pulseview but it seams much more powerful, especially in the analog domain.
The first challenge is to get a binary distribution, since you have to build it yourself from the source code (at least I was not able to find a downloadable version :-//...) !
Then the current version does not work with latest Siglent SDS 2000X HD firmware: I had to patch it to have it support frame length reported in points rather than bytes.
In anyone is interested, I can start new thread to share a downloadable windows installer for this patched version.

Hello fredo_ !
Challenges are juice of live.
I'll try to compile ngscopeclient on Windows/MSYS2 probably during week end 31/8 - 1/9
A new dedicated thread (not only for Windows) for ngscopeclient on EEVBlog forum sounds a good idea to me if one does not yet exists (I didn't find one).

Recently, sigrok has released the scripts needed to build it. Now everybody can build their own fork of sigrok/pulseview with a github action:

I am wondering if on the next version of Windows you will be able to install a compiler or you wil be forced to go to Github ... and pay a subscription.
