Games: Gamepads and Keyboard Configuration

Description

Games supports many gamepads but does not allow the users to configure them.

The project has been divided into three major phases :

  • Gamepad Configuration : Allow user to view and edit mappings of their gamepads
  • Controller Reassignment : Allow user to reorder their controllers
  • Keyboard Configuration : Allow user to view and edit mappings of their keyboard

Mentor

Adrien Plazas, who is also the maintainer of Games will be mentoring this project.
