con3troller

WIP 3DS controller via local WIFI.

Whenever the touch position is updated, python script will update mouse position, current ratio:
(touchx / 320) * 1920
(touchy / 240) * 1080
(end result is rounded)
(movement should be stable)

Buttons are mappable to other keyboard letters via kconfig.json. Special buttons including the arrow keys are currently WIP

Setup

1. Install pynput with python -3 -m pip install pynput
2. Place kconfig.json next to server.py
