More power to the developers. In the past you had to cross your fingers that the browser vendor would have implemented the gamepad the user wanted to use, and it not, you'd be out of luck.
The issue of "every site needing to reimplement every gamepad" can be fixed by developers making libraries with those implementations.
- kreeben 6y ago>> More power to the developers Are you suggesting developers will gain power by buying in to these APIs? If you are, then let me remind you of a slippery slope known as "lock in". Never, is when a developer is empowered by lock in.

- trissylegs 6y agoI suppose someonte could create a HID service. That lets Games download WASM drivers for any device on demand, and new devices could be added without any change to the application. Kinda like how webfonts mean a site no longer needs to rely on fonts being installed on the browser, and Google fonts means CMS providers don't need to provide every webfont. (If the platform allows Google Font's or similar).
