The problem is that most people use Unihiker for IoT sensors. and I wanted to use it to create something, but since I spend most of my time coding at my desk, I reasoned that it would be helpful to us eunihikers as a stream deck. People purchased it so they could quickly switch between apps. or stream, so I reasoned that since we have a lot of tabs open or the entire IDE open and use git in the terminal when debugging or researching, why not create a steam deck that covers the repetitive mouse usage?
It took me some time to realize that it only supports a small number of libraries, such as PIL and Customtkinker, which greatly aided me in designing the user interface and making it function. Since everything is written in Python, it will function via wifi like a bridge, meaning that the brain is Mac and Unihiker essentially sends signals to the brain about what to do. Additionally, it has idle behavior with lightweight frame-based animation that only shows up when the device is inactive and exits upon touch. This project is easy to maintain and significantly reduces the rig of regression. It started out as a simple shortcut board concept and developed into a useful lesson that included UI design and building a reliable system.
