Research direction

Start by reading the BikeControl project’s existing platform support and how it connects Click V2 controllers; the issue does not identify specific files or tests. Done means BikeControl can run natively on Linux and connect the controllers without routing setup through a phone and the MyWhoosh app.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I would be extremely cool if this app was supported for Linux. I'm running MyWhoosh on linux thanks to https://github.com/Dj0ulo/mywhoosh-linux, and currently I have to connect the Click V2 controllers via phone, then use the MyWhoosh app to link it, whereas it would be very nice to be able to run BikeControl on Linux natively.
