🎮 Raspberry Pi Pico Button Box - DIY Gamepad and Input Device 🎮

In this project, I'll show you how to build a custom button box using a Raspberry Pi Pico. This button box can be used for gaming, simulation, or any application where you need custom input controls.

🔧 I'll walk you through the hardware setup, including how to connect buttons and encoders to your Raspberry Pi Pico.

📚 On the software side, we'll use CircuitPython and the adafruit_hid library to emulate a gamepad. You can easily customize the button functions to suit your needs.
