    i’m tricking the nintendo switch into thinking my computer is a bluetooth pro controller. I’m using a crate called bluer which exposes bindings to the BlueZ stack and it’s been great to use.

    I got to the point where it pairs the controller and hits B to exit. However it doesnt seem to accept any more button presses after that… :) So I have some ways to go.

    I’ve also needed a project where I can challenge myself with the basics of async without it being overwhelming, and I think this hits the sweet spot. It’s my first time using tokio spawn, join, and select in a real project!
