Translates joy-con -> mouse. Specifically, (by default,) the stick acts like a thinkpad "nub", ZL/ZR left-click, L/R right-click.
Clone this repository and build it using cargo. Alternatively, install it with
cargo install --git https://github.com/coolreader18/joykbd.
Connect a Joy-Con to your computer using bluetooth. Ensure you have a driver
for Joy-Cons; I've had no issues with
dkms-hid-nintendo
(aur).
joykbd /dev/input/eventNN
# by default, it looks for a device in /dev/input whose name has "Joy-Con" in it
# so, leaving the device path out should be fine in most cases
joykbd
# if the cursor tends to like going to the right more then the left, set
# --x-bias with a negative value. Vice-versa for leaning left more than right,
# and same with --y-bias for the Y axis
joykbd --x-bias -2000
# if you have bad joycon drift, set --drift-threshold. Axis readings where
# abs(value) < drift-threshold will be ignored. Note that this also makes the
# pointing device less sensitive, unfortunately.
