The record

Purpose: HID Remapper is an open-source programmable hardware adapter that remaps USB input devices for desktop computing and gaming accessibility.
Remapping: It supports button and axis remapping, layers, macros, and custom behaviors.
Hardware operation: It works in hardware without special software running on the connected computer, and saves configuration on the device.
Browser configuration: The configuration website uses WebHID and works only in desktop Chrome; Edge and Opera may also work.
Supported inputs: It accepts standard USB HID devices, including mice, keyboards, many game controllers, wireless receivers, and USB MIDI controllers.
Operating systems: In mouse and keyboard mode, it is compatible with hosts running Windows, macOS, Linux, or ChromeOS; mobile devices that support regular USB keyboards and mice can also work.
Console compatibility: The manual says Nintendo Switch works out of the box, while other modern consoles generally need additional effort or adapters.
Accessibility: It can connect external buttons or switches through GPIO pins, and custom board v6 provides 3.5 mm jacks for adaptive buttons.
Polling rate: It can overclock the polling rate of certain devices up to 1000 Hz.
Source availability: The project says its firmware and optional custom hardware are open source.
Device compatibility limit: The manual cautions that individual devices may not work if their HID report descriptors have issues, though custom usages can sometimes address them.
Support: The project provides a user manual, forum, GitHub issue reporting, and an email contact for questions.
Configuration: Configuration uses WebHID in the desktop version of Chrome; the manual says other Chrome-based browsers such as Edge and Opera might also work.
Input compatibility: It supports standard USB HID devices, wireless receivers, multiple devices through a USB hub, Xbox One/Series and wired Xbox 360 controllers, and USB MIDI controllers.
