Development Roadmap

Completed foundations

  • Tauri + React/TypeScript desktop shell, themes, navigation, and accessibility contrast mode.
  • Versioned JSON profiles with built-in templates and import/export.
  • Generic, non-copyrighted controller visualization.
  • Real evdev controller enumeration/capability probing plus a safe simulated fallback for development without hardware.
  • Pure, tested stick/trigger response transformation math.

Next engineering milestones

  1. Connect the reader to the transform pipeline and a managed uinput virtual controller with safe cleanup on disconnect/shutdown.
  2. Finish advanced mappings (macros, turbo timing, shift layers, hold/toggle semantics) in the output pipeline.
  3. Complete calibration sampling and custom curve editing.
  4. Add executable-based profile switching and the support-bundle exporter.
  5. Validate hardware behavior across USB, Bluetooth, and receiver modes; build distributable Linux packages.

Safety principles

  • No firmware changes.
  • No undocumented vendor commands.
  • No root application process.
  • Never create a virtual output device unless requested and permission checks pass.
  • Release virtual controls on disconnect and application shutdown.
