I want to develop an application recently, and I hope this application can make my Stream Deck MK.2 work properly on Ubuntu system. Can this library help me?

Never tested it on Linux, but I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work. Are you going to use C++?

56756639 commented 2 months ago

Yes, I plan to use C++ to implement my project. Although I would prefer to use C, I can't really find a C library for Stream Deck

This library focuses mostly on Qt and is heavily inspired by https://github.com/abcminiuser/python-elgato-streamdeck. The latter one is not that complicated. You could use it as a reference to make your own C implementation based on libusb and hidapi.

My idea is to use Qt to achieve similar effects as the official Stream Deck software, and then port it to Linux for running (by cross-compiling to generate an executable file for the Linux platform).I don't know if my idea can be realized, but I want to try.
