Linux multi-touch gesture recognizer
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer & System Architect
Back-end Developer & System ArchitectContributions:9 releases, 64 reviews, 403 commits in 7 years 1 month
Contributions summary:José implemented core setup and configuration functionality for the Touchégg application, which is a multi-touch gesture recognizer for Linux. Their work involved setting up build configurations with CMake, including support for code style checks using clang-tidy and clang-format, and also adding dependency on various libraries for input handling. Furthermore, they designed the application's architecture with the addition of D-Bus integration for inter-process communication. These changes laid the foundation for more extensive gesture recognition and action execution capabilities.
