Gamepad Navigator published on the Chrome Web Store

[Divyanshu Mahajan]

Hello everyone,


The Gamepad Navigator
<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gamepad-navigator/egilmijcknfacjjbchcacijkknbkgfnd>
is
now published on the Google Chrome Web Store. It is one of the Google
Summer of Code 2020 projects that I worked on under the mentorship of Tony.
As of today, it is now publicly published and searchable on the Chrome Web
Store. The Gamepad Navigator is available for Chrome and other browsers
that support installation from the Chrome Web Store, such as the latest
version of Microsoft Edge. If you run into any issues or have suggestions
for improvements, please file a ticket in the issue tracker
<https://github.com/fluid-lab/gamepad-navigator/issues>.


The Gamepad Navigator allows the users to navigate browsers using a game
controller and is an alternative to a keyboard or mouse for browser
navigation.


The various buttons and analog sticks on the gamepad will serve as inputs
for the different types of navigation features or browser actions. Users
can redefine what each d-pad, thumbstick, button, and trigger does using
the configuration panel.


The following actions are supported:

   - Click
   - Focus on the previous / next element
   - Scroll left / right / up / down
   - Zoom in to / out of the active web page
   - Open a new tab / window
   - Close current tab / window
   - Switch to the previous / next browser tab
   - Switch to the previous / next browser window
   - History navigation (back / next)
   - Maximize / restore the size of current browser window
   - Reopen the last closed tab or window



Regards
Divyanshu
