This project is an iPhone app that emulates retro game controllers and a device driver. The device driver makes the controller appear to macOS as a physical device and can be used by any app or game that supports HID game controllers on a Mac (and in the future, an iPad with an M-series chip).

Virtual Controller is a work in progress. The controller app will eventually be available on the iOS App Store, and the driver will eventually be available on the Mac App Store.

As I develop Virtual Controller, here's how you can help me.
