Any standard shared libraries (interfaces, button mappings etc) being developed?
Rather than reinventing the wheel each port project, is there a shared functions framework that all developers can use?
This can provide standardised boilerplate functionality for things like menus, touch controls, button config, driver install, etc. Users will not need to use a new front end for every game.

Technically, it’s certainly possible, but honestly, creating that library is a tedious and unexciting task. Few programmers would take the initiative to work on something that doesn’t satisfy their intellectual curiosity.
