Forks
Forks pushed to more recently than kritzikratzi/ofxNative itself, plus any admin-confirmed fork with commits of its own — worth checking if you're hitting issues with the original.
Branches ahead of master
These branches have commits not yet on master — could be unmerged fixes or work in progress worth a look.
