AbleMouse
The 3D model for this enclosure, designed to accommodate an ESP32 development board and its adapter, was contributed by an individual who wishes to remain anonymous.

I will receive the ordered adapter in early October. Once I verify the compatibility of all components and wiring, I will update the assembly guide

Received the ordered adapter for the ESP32. Checked its compatibility with the ESP32 board and the 3D-printed case. All components are compatible. Test passed.

MouseCommander – part of the AbleMouse project

is an example of a simple tool that was developed in response to requests from people with disabilities who use Windows, to simplify and accelerate their workflow. It is especially designed for those who can only control a mouse pointer (without a regular mouse) and cannot use a keyboard. It combines the built-in capabilities of Windows, PowerToys, and the AutoHotkey tool.
It enables quick movement to desired screen locations, calling the on-screen keyboard (OSK) and positioning the cursor within it, and simplifies aiming at specific points using crosshair assistance. This approach can be easily extended with additional functions as needed.

p.s. It will be useful for a wide range of solutions, not just AbleMouse.

I tried doing a quick iOS compatibility test.
I tested it on an iPad – after connecting the AbleMouse via Bluetooth, you can control the cursor and click. There is a small nuance: after connecting via Bluetooth, you need to adjust a setting in Accessibility. You can see an example right after this post (video shows regular mouse but the process is the same for AbleMouse)
I will do a more detailed test when I write the user guide for iOS.
Judging by the questions I receive, many people are unaware of the built-in features in operating systems that could significantly make their lives easier. I actually agree that even for someone in IT, not everything is immediately obvious, so it's twice as difficult for non-it person. I am gradually gathering materials to create short and clear instructions for controlling different operating systems using only a mouse.
Such guides will be useful not only for AbleMouse users but for anyone using alternative cursor control devices.

I've tested AbleMouse on Unix (Ubuntu 24+). Everything works.
Now we can say that AbleMouse will work automatically in addition to Windows, Mac OS, and Android, also on popular versions of Unix (for example, Ubuntu).
