QJoyPad is a convenient little program with a Qt interface that converts
movement and button presses on a gamepad or joystick into key presses, mouse
clicks, and mouse movement in XWindows. It should work on almost every Linux
system and with any Linux-supported gaming device.
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
