Sway Input Configurator for Linux
Input device configurator for Sway
Overview
Sway Input Configurator is a tool made for Linux users who want to set up their input devices when using the Sway Wayland Compositor.
This software helps you adjust settings for keyboards, touchpads, and mouse devices using the standard libinput system.
It is designed to work specifically with Sway, so it fits well with that environment and may not support other window managers or compositors.
The app is written in Python and uses Qt5/PySide2, which suggests it has a graphical user interface.
This makes it easier for users who prefer clicking through menus instead of typing commands in the terminal.
Since it uses the common libinput options, it supports most of the usual settings for input devices, like pointer speed, tapping, or natural scrolling.
However, this tool focuses only on basic input device configuration.
It does not include any extra features like hardware diagnostics or advanced customization beyond what libinput offers.
There is also no clear information about how user-friendly it is or if it comes with detailed help or documentation.
If you are using the Sway compositor on Linux and need a straightforward way to manage your keyboard, touchpad, or mouse settings, Sway Input Configurator is worth considering.
It is best suited for users comfortable with Linux who want a graphical way to handle input device settings in Sway.
