## Useful for

- Build a wireless dongle for Steam Controller 2 using an NRF52840 Pro Micro
- Switch the controller to Xbox 360 mode for games outside Steam
- Connect the controller to a Nintendo Switch with gyro and haptics

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-11 (UTC), 11:04–12:32: 1020 → 1020 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +3 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- GitHub Trending C++ today: #6, +15 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
