The settings are stored in a `profile.json` file within the profile folder. + +## FAQ + +### Why was this project created? + +I was fiddling with the default Stream Deck software, and realized that it [was constantly scanning my registry and process tree](https://twitter.com/DennisCode/status/1401230392527523856). According to Elgato support, this is necessary for [Smart Profiles](https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360053419071-Elgato-Stream-Deck-Smart-Profiles); however, the process monitoring occurs even when Smart Profiles are not configured. While the feature itself is nice, I wasn't too comfortable with some software constantly monitoring what I run without a way to disable that, so I decided to tinker with the device and see if I can figure out how to write my own software that manages the Stream Deck device. + +### Is this official/endorsed by Elgato? + +No - not in any capacity. Use at your own leisure and risk. + +### Where can I go to read more about the project? + +This repository generally should be a good starting point, but you can also go to [https://deck.surf](https://deck.surf) for latest links and relevant information. + +### Can I run this on Linux/macOS? + +Not yet - I am still exploring the best way to make this tooling reliably work on Windows. Once that is done, I would love to make this also work on macOS and Linux. + +### Is there a GUI management app for this? + +Not yet - it's just a CLI and a .NET SDK. In the future, I expect to also create a more visual approach to managing the content, that is easier for folks that don't want to fiddle with the terminal. diff --git a/images/logo.afphoto b/images/logo.afphoto index 3ced93c..fd096ce 100644 Binary files a/images/logo.afphoto and b/images/logo.afphoto differ diff --git a/images/logo.png b/images/logo.png index 5ce3bff..65f24a7 100644 Binary files a/images/logo.png and b/images/logo.png differ diff --git a/images/piglet.ico b/images/piglet.ico index 312a0f7..7c31f01 100644 Binary files a/images/piglet.ico and b/images/piglet.ico differ
