About Piper
Piper is a graphical user interface to configure gaming mice.
Configuration options include changing the resolution (DPI) of the
mouse, adding and removing profiles, setting LED colors and changing
button behaviors.
Piper requires libratbag’s ratbagd, the daemon to actually communicate with the
mice. Piper is merely a front end to ratbagd, ratbagd must be
installed and running when Piper is launched.
