Use cases

- customize Stream Deck buttons with plugins
- automatically switch Stream Deck pages based on the active app
- create custom macros on a Stream Deck under Linux
- set wallpapers and screensavers on my Stream Deck
- find an open-source alternative to the official Stream Deck software for Linux
When to choose
- you use an Elgato Stream Deck (or compatible device) on Linux
- you want plugin extensibility and a built-in plugin store
- you want automatic page switching on GNOME, Hyprland, Sway, KDE, or X11
