Fara is a tool to control the mouse with gestures.

I woke up with a dead trackpad, and built it instead of buying a new one.

• pyenv

# open the repository
cd ./fara

# install python used in .python-version
pyenv install

# install dependencies
make setup

# run the application
make run

1. Left Click: pinch (thumb + index/middle finger)
2. Right Click: pinch (thumb + pinky)
3. Drag: pinch and hold
4. Scroll: fist and pull up/down

This is still extremely early days. The current proof of concept was written by AI.

I needed something extremely quickly, because well I had no mouse. I'll make it better, slowly, because I'm using this personally.

Heads up, this might not stay in Python. It might get re-written in Go.
