Version 5.3.1 - Fixed service bug

Fixed a bug where the service got stuck and could not send wake packets to the switch 2. Make sure to reconfigure -wake.

• Added a wake protocol that simulates your joycon 2 to turn on your switch 2 from a client connection (Requires setup)!
  To configure it, use the -wake flag. You can find more about it here.

sudo ./ns-backend -wake

Thanks to Bill-git1 for making the script that was used to implement the wake protocol! You can check it out here.

Version 5.3.0 - Wake up your switch 2 from afar!

• Added a wake protocol that simulates your joycon 2 to turn on your switch 2 from a client connection (Requires setup)!
  To configure it, use the -wake flag. You can find more about it here.

sudo ./ns-backend -wake

Support for switch 1 with the wake protocol is being investigated currently.

Thanks to Bill-git1 for making the script that was used to implement the wake protocol! You can check it out here.

Version 5.2.2 - Stable Release

• Fixed the ios app completely! Gyro and rumble are now working better!
• Added a connection probe, now clients wont show "connected" when they are not connected.
• Fixed macros UI in webapp.

There are still some issues with the gyro touch controls for ios, I have tested it and for some games it might not work properly.

I now consider this app to be feature complete and stable! This was a fun project to work on since it was my first one.
If you have any issues with it or want to suggest a new feature, make sure to drop them in here.
I hope you can enjoy it as much as I do!

Version 5.2.1 - Fixed gyro controls

Version 4.1.0 - Critical fixes for webapp

• Fixed a bug where the web app would make 2 players use the same virtual controller
• Made editor more convenient to use

The Raspberry Pi server now includes an embedded web server with the same interface as the PC clients:

• Desktop Control Panel — virtual gamepad with keyboard bindings and browser Gamepad API support
• Mobile Touch Controls — touch-optimized on-screen gamepad with virtual joysticks for phones and tablets
• Layout Editor — drag/pinch to customize the mobile control layout

No client installation needed — The web interface is compiled into the ns-backend binary, no extra files required.

How to use

# Enable the web server (default port 8080)
sudo chrt -f 99 ./ns-backend -w

# Or with a custom port
sudo chrt -f 99 ./ns-backend -w 3000
