Zero to a deck in fifteen seconds
Run the server, scan the QR code, and the phone in your hand is a control surface that fires real OS-level keystrokes. The software you are driving never knows RemapWrap exists, which is the point: it works with everything, because it is indistinguishable from a keyboard.
A Stream Deck is a hundred and fifty dollars and a drawer you have to find it in. This is the glass you are already holding.
Then sixty seconds to make it yours
The default layout is the fifteen-second answer. The real one is a mock screen you draw on: drop a control anywhere, size it, colour it, and decide what it sends.
| Buttons | Any shape and size, from a single key to a full-width bar |
|---|---|
| Sliders | Continuous values — a volume, a zoom, an exposure |
| Dials | Rotary control, for the things a knob suits better than a bar |
| Scrollers | Wheel input, for timelines and long documents |
| Trackpad | An area that moves the pointer, because the phone already tracks a finger |
Every input a mouse has, on a surface with no fixed shape. A deck for editing does not have to look anything like a deck for streaming, and neither has to look like a keyboard.
Where it actually is
The alpha is buttons. The recovered v0.1.0 pairs over a QR code, serves a grid of keys, fires them through the OS, and buzzes the phone on press. Layouts are JSON, edited live in the dashboard. That much works today.
The sliders, dials, scrollers and trackpad above are the design and are not written yet. They are on this page because they are what the product is for, and marked plainly so nobody downloads the alpha expecting them.
The company is named after this
RemapWrap began as F-Keys — an extra row of keys, on glass you already own. The name outgrew the product and became the company. The product then went missing for five months, surviving in a single zip file in a folder called "zip to sort".
