VulcanBoard

A hotkey board for desktop touchscreens.

There are many hotkey solutions and programs like that use either

  • physical devices (Elgato StreamDeck) or
  • touchscreens (LioranBoard, MacroDeck, StreamPi)

They are often very bloated but lack basic features like

  • multitouch support for the desktop client
  • asynchronous command execution
  • a fullscreen mode

They also crash way too often, so especially given their intended use for livestreaming production that greatly values stability, VulcanBoard aims to be a rock-solid alternative.

Installation

To setup you need to have python3 installed. In addition, to install the dependencies using pip:

pip install pyyaml kivy

Project State

It is currently still under heavy development, here are some planned changes:

  • add documentation for the configuration and use of VulcanBoard
  • add gui window to configure keys
    • add multiple boards to config.yml
    • add edit history cache
  • add button merging
  • add possibility to choose the font family used for button texts
  • add rounded corners for buttons
  • use constants / constant dict for default values
  • add folders
  • add button signals (changing button color / text based on certain conditions)
