The long term vision and goals of the project is an all-in-one application to manage your entire retro games library that is:
- Already configured and should just work with your games.
- Has disaster recovery and multi device support: with cloud saves and syncs.
- Easy to install with one click installation.
- Easy to use and provide a "Console-like / Batocera-like" featured user experience.
- Easy to manage your collections of roms, mods and romhacks.
- As much as possible should be configurable from inside RetroDECK itself without needing to exiting the application.
- Make tighter integrations with bundled emulators and expose more features and ways to handle them to the end users.
- Should be secure, safe, and stable.
- Should have an easy way to mange external controllers and other inputs.
- Should support a majority of all supported Emulators in ES-DE, so at least you have one good option per system.
- Should in the long run support applications outside of the scope of ES-DE via a ports manager.
- Should be plug and play and fill the need for a portable retro gaming solution that you can bring on the go to a friend’s/family/others house. Just dock into the TV and get going!
- Should fully support Steam Deck, Linux Desktop, other SteamOS or Linux based devices.
