@doZennn hi noticed you closed my request as a duplicate which is fair but i'm just hoping you can give a verbal answer on the subject before you decide to close the request

Thanks @NotAmiru for letting me know about this issue.

@doZennn If this is something you're thinking of following through with, I'm happy to help with the port or improve parts of Millennium to support the plugin.

Since Millennium's frontend is a fork of Decky with some tweaks, getting it working shouldn't be too difficult.

[doZennn]

One of the main reasons I closed this is that I don't use Millennium, so I can't commit to maintaining a plugin at the pace I aim for in an official SteamGridDB integration.

@shdwmtr If you are willing to help port (or adjust the codebase to make it cross-compatible, if that makes more sense) and also maintain it at a reasonable pace that would be great. There's also some stuff that was rushed that could be rewritten, and some things hard coded to make sense from within Big Picture Mode that would need to be stripped out or heavily adjusted to work with the Desktop client.

I'm willing to help port and maintain assuming you'd be on board with doing so as well. I likely wouldn't be able to solely maintain the entire Millennium port as I have a lot I'm currently working on; but I'm more than happy to split.

After a quick look over the code base, it seems most stuff should fit in place fine, except for a few things like decky's routerHook which I never found the time the implement as no one wanted it.

[doZennn]

Of course, I just need someone that isn't just me that can occasionally fix things. Functionality wise it's already feature-complete.
The only real use for routerHook is to make a new page to browse for assets. If Millennium has it's own way create views or popups then it should be fine.

[shdwmtr]

Sounds good. Millennium doesn't necessarily have a built in window manager, but Steam does so I could just make it use that.

Started porting it here, figured I wouldn't fork it and integrate both projects into one as that would be counter intuitive at that point. Once it's done I'll transfer ownership to this organization; unless you have other plans.

90% of whats changed so far is just the prettier vscode plugin formatting the repo. If you're not a fan of prettier/the current config lmk.
