Research direction

Start by locating the usage/getting-started documentation and review issue #3's Steam Deck coverage. Add a section covering tablets, phones, and other handheld devices, including the possible use of Wi-Fi connections; the work is done when these portable device cases are documented clearly.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

A convenient but under-represented device class for Cockpit is portable/handheld/mobile devices.

#3 is a start on this (for the steamdeck), but we should also specifically cover tablets/phones, and likely other handheld devices as well.


  • Suggested by @patrickelectric
  • @vshie has mentioned such devices may be more likely to use wifi connections than direct tethers, which would be nice to factor in
