Native widget dashboard for the Xeneon Edge on macOS

Launched July 22, 2026

About Vardek

Vardek provides a native widget dashboard for the Corsair Xeneon Edge on macOS, replacing the Windows‑only iCUE widget layer. It runs a small Swift daemon (edge‑daemon) on the loopback interface to serve a full‑screen, touch‑driven 8×2 widget grid displayed via a native WKWebView shell (edge‑shell). Nine first‑party widgets are included and additional iCUE‑compatible widgets can be imported as plain web folders. Widgets are managed through an in‑app browser‑based admin page, and a searchable local help system is available. All operations stay on the Mac with no cloud accounts, telemetry, or external network access.
