@YinYinFalcon SDL's gamepad support seems to be excellent all around, and I embed the user maintained DB with hundreds more 3rd party controllers. Like it even works with my gamecube adapter. Haha.
On web? It relies on the browser to tell you what the mapping is, and it's often just... wrong. My 8bit Do controller is mismapped on Linux/Firefox, my Xbox controller on iOS, my PS5 on Android (catastrophically so...). Just all over the place unfortunately.

@slembcke if you have the capacity to make the controller glyphs static on web rather than dymanic that would suit most players giving it a try . just always the correct xbox glyph, no matter what the browser reports
