About
-----

This application runs as a background process in order to receive state/event information from pi-top hardware and manage the system configuration in order to provide plug-and-play functionality. It also provides an interface for getting information from the hub without requiring any knowledge of the hub's internal register interface.

This package is needed by all pi-top devices in order for them to work properly. It's included out-of-the-box with pi-topOS and can be installed in other Debian based OS.

Ensure that you keep your system up-to-date to enjoy the latest features and bug fixes.

This is a Python 3 application that is managed by a systemd service, configured to automatically run on startup and restart during software updates.

------------
Installation
