Haptics Explorer vs Pier
Haptics Explorer is for iOS developers who need to feel a haptic on a real iPhone before they ship it, because the Simulator does not vibrate. Pier turns a Nextcloud, NAS, SFTP or NFS folder into a normal Windows drive letter, with a block cache, resumable transfers and an offline mode, so every Windows program can open the files. Both are listed in Productivity.

What is Haptics Explorer?
Haptics Explorer is for iOS developers who need to feel a haptic on a real iPhone before they ship it, because the Simulator does not vibrate. Eight groups are on the device: impact from light through rigid, notification success, error, and warning, selection ticks, rhythms such as a heartbeat, double tap, and tick-tock, gesture patterns for swipe, pinch, and long press, game hits such as an explosion or a power-up, accessibility patterns, and custom ones. You can play a pattern, loop it, change the speed, and adjust intensity and sharpness, then copy a code snippet in a form you can paste into an app. It is a try-on bench for UIKit haptics, not a game.

Pier turns a remote folder into a normal Windows drive letter. It speaks WebDAV (Nextcloud, ownCloud, Synology, QNAP, Apache, IIS), SFTP (any SSH server, password or OpenSSH keys) and NFSv3, and uses the open-source Dokany driver, installed for you by the setup program, so Explorer, Office, backup tools and scripts work on the drive as on a local disk.
