An unofficial, community-made build of EDI (Easy Device Integration) — a Windows app that syncs game events with interactive devices over a local REST API.

Based on EDI by NoGRo. This is a fan modification and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the original author. Please star and support the original project too.

This build keeps EDI's core engine and REST API intact and focuses on a reworked desktop launcher plus quality-of-life features:

• Redesigned game launcher — cover-art game cards with adjustable size, corners, blur, badges, and title layout, plus a clear selected game highlight (glow / border / bar / solid styles).
• Cover & banner search — pull artwork from multiple online sources (including SteamGridDB and itch.io), choose from multiple matches, and crop to fit. Animated GIF and MP4 covers play on hover/select.
• Live funscript preview — a built-in visualizer shows the currently playing script in real time, freezes the line on pause, and reflects live intensity/vibration. Works without hardware via an optional Preview Device.
• Settings overhaul — inline info popups, a top header bar with customizable quick-launch chips, persistent window size/position, and a Dev tab to toggle the Preview Device.
• Device robustness fixes — EDI no longer exits when Intiface/Buttplug isn't running (fast TCP reachability probe + widened error handling), plus Handy / OSR / preview fixes.
• Support popup — credits the original project and provides optional donation links.

For the full description of EDI's engine, gallery system, variants, multi-axis / multi-channel support, and the complete HTTP API, see README.upstream.md — the original project's documentation, preserved here.

How the launcher, per-game folders, and the save-data dir relate. Click for full size, or grab docs/file-layout.svg for crisp zoom-anywhere.

Quick rules baked into the diagram:

• EdiConfig.json is optional per game — class defaults take over when absent; the file is lazily created only when a per-game setting actually saves.
• Gallery grouping — files sharing a base name (e.g. scene1.funscript + scene1.pitch.funscript) form one gallery; the FM converter and multi-axis playback both treat them as a unit.
• Icon resolution chain — first hit wins: IconPath → desktop.ini IconResource → loose folder.ico / icon.ico / _folder.ico → .exe embedded icon → shell jumbo (generic) as last resort.
• Per-game cache subfolders — every download lands in <OutputDir>\{covers|icons}\<safe-name>\ so re-fetches accumulate variants and Browse pickers can list every one.
• Portable mode — flips <OutputDir> to GAME\EDI\Data\ so the whole launcher + its save data can travel on a USB stick.

• Windows 10/11 (x64)
• .NET 8 Desktop Runtime and ASP.NET Core 8 Runtime — download both (x64) from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0

This is a lightweight, framework-dependent build (~28 MB), so the .NET 8 runtimes above must be installed. If you'd rather have a build that runs without installing anything, publish a self-contained version (see Build from source).

1. Download the latest EDI-Mod-*-portable.zip from the Releases page.
2. Extract it anywhere.
3. Run Edi.exe.

Settings and your game library are stored inside the build's own Data\ folder (portable mode), so nothing is written elsewhere on your PC.

Prerequisite: .NET 8 SDK — https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0

git clone <your-fork-url>
cd Edi

:: Framework-dependent (small; needs the .NET 8 runtimes above installed)
dotnet publish Edi.Wpf/Edi.Wpf.csproj -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained false ^
  -p:PublishSingleFile=true -o publish

:: OR self-contained (large, ~350 MB; runs without installing .NET)
dotnet publish Edi.Wpf/Edi.Wpf.csproj -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained true ^
  -p:PublishSingleFile=true -o publish-selfcontained

Use dotnet publish, not dotnet build — a plain build produces an apphost that won't launch standalone.
