What would you like to be added?
Add an eye or headtracking support. Headtracking might be easier to achieve.
That can be toggled using a keybind
Depending what window you are looking at, that window is focused.

How will it help
No need for a mouse or a hotkey to focus a window.
Write and interact where you look.

Extra info
Add some glowing border around the window that is focused.

I don't have an eye tracker device
And I don't have sufficient knowledge to do it with the camera

Understandable. Eye tracker not needed, camera is all you need. Especially for headtracking are many projects available that are already done and ready to be used. I'll setup a project and try to achieve something promising. Just a nice to have.

were you able to make some progress on this or atleast put some references as to how others may have implemented it using camera only?

Just use the search engine integrated in Github. You'll find some references there. e.g. Linuxtrack-mickey. As soon as my schedule allows, I'll code one from scratch for a clean installation without overhead.

@RipDr19 I have coded my own solution. See my repo: HeadTracking.
For now only Headtracking is supported, i'll try to add eye tracking in the future.
