NixOS users can build and run Bridge with `nix run` from this checkout (or `nix run github:OpenMouse-Project/openmouse-bridge` after this support is merged). The flake builds against NixOS libraries and exposes the system Vulkan ICD. HID access still needs a udev rule; see the installer help and configure the rule declaratively in NixOS.

Linux notes: the tray uses StatusNotifierItem/DBusMenu on the session bus
(KDE Plasma and other compatible hosts; GNOME needs an AppIndicator/SNI
extension). It shows the battery glyph, charge colour and the same battery

Install the native-hid dependencies before packaging the helper.

Line 29 copies native-hid without its ignored node_modules directory. The flake does not install the dependencies declared in native-hid/package.json. When Bridge starts apply.mjs, Node cannot resolve node-hid or the OpenMouse protocol packages, so native HID control fails. Package the locked npm dependencies and their native bindings alongside the helper. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Review comment at @flake.nix at line 29:
Update the native-hid packaging step around the cp command so the packaged
helper includes its locked npm dependencies and compatible native bindings. Use
the flake’s established dependency-packaging approach, ensuring apply.mjs can
resolve node-hid and the OpenMouse protocol packages without relying on the
ignored node_modules directory.
