DS4Windows VS platelet

And there was also a fork available in the last year while the original dev was on a hiatus.

Personally I use CircumSpector's DS4Windows. It has restored rumble and lightbar passthru on my end. The lightbar passthru is kinda buggy but it kinda works.

Thankfully, Jibb already redirects the newer fork if you look at the Release page or literally the first Paragraph of README.md. So unlike DS4Windows (which took 6-7+ years to tell folks to move over to Ryochan4 fork...which said fork been discontinued and someone else took over. Welcome to FOSS. 😋), it should be easy enough to head over to Electronicks fork.

Final note: DS4Windows hasn't been updated since August 2021. Another group forked it and they're rewriting a lot of it. There is no release yet and no release date planned.

A couple of FOSS enthusiasts and myself have taken over the decade old game controller remapping tool DS4Windows (https://github.com/CircumSpector/DS4Windows) with the goal to rewrite major parts using latest dotnet patterns and technologies. There's still months worth of work left but despite being an ambitious task, it's quite doable and fun figuring out your way around someone else's massive code base. Join us if you like!

The DS4Windows project is not dead. There is a new team working on it called CircumSpector, but it may take a while for a update to be released since they are focusing on "modernizing" the code so it's easier to maintain it in the future. There are lots of changes going on under the hood, but "user visible" changes for now.

This is not exactly true. Check CircumSpector's DS4Windows.

that has my package.json file and some other testing stuff. (I don't know if that's really clear, you can just look at the file structure here if it's helpful https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet)

I'm working on a project to develop a dispatch system for volunteer emergency couriers, aka blood bikes. They deliver samples, blood, donated breast milk and equipment between hospitals around the UK, as well as supply blood to air ambulances.

The app is meant to replace a system of pen, paper and spreadsheets that the service is mostly being run on. I've been working directly with the charities for it to best suit their needs.

It uses React, JavaSript, Material UI, Jest, Redux and React Testing Library. Eventually I'd like to develop a React Native mobile app too.

There are some details on the issues page https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet/issues about some of the work that still needs to be done.

I have a Discord too although it's a little quiet - https://discord.gg/tWhCM98ckB

I'd be glad to hear from anyone who feels like they'd want to contribute. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me (Ducky) on Discord.
