About the project
An app that controls your laptop with hand gestures via the webcam: volume, arrow keys and space bar. Runs locally on Windows and Apple Silicon Macs; the camera feed is never recorded or sent anywhere.
Useful for
- Control laptop volume with thumb gestures while watching videos
- Flip through presentation slides with index finger gestures without a mouse or keyboard
- Pause a video with a pinch gesture without touching the computer

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-15 (UTC), 00:21–01:52: 84 → 84 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +8 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 84 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
