This is a GSI variant rom build targetted for Microsoft Surface Duo with the intention of using the Surface Duo as a desktop environment using experimental floating window features. This build combines gapps/vanila variants of the GSI rom from ponces with desktop mode enabled + various tweaks to make it nice and smooth with the help of thain tweaks. All credits go to respective developers. Desktop mode can be disabled from the home settings.
Thanks to thain, duo react to various duo postures and the hinge gaps can be enabled/disabled through the treble app.
Try this at your own risk and proceed with caution!
