Steam Controller Wrapper

(I'm currently looking for a better name.)

SCWrapper is a Linux application that translates inputs from the 2026 version of the Steam Controller into standard gamepad controls without depending on the Steam Client. This enables the Steam Controller to function in nontraditional environments such as on the MisterFPGA or Raspberry Pi where a Steam client may be unavailable or the default keyboard + mouse control scheme is unsuitable.

Features:

• Basic Steam Controller support (buttons, triggers, touchpads, and joysticks.)
• Support for the Steam Controller Puck (i.e. handling multiple controllers) --- Note: This is untested, because I only have one controller.
• Multiple Puck Support: up to 16 controllers, but can be compiled to handle more. --- Note: Untested for the same reason.
• Supports:
  • x86_64 Linux
  • ARMv7L Linux (for the MisterFPGA)

Planned Features:

• Rumble Support
• Gyro Support
• Alternative Touchpad Configurations
• Haptics Support (?)
