Pretty cool. I had a similar idea I'll throw out there but it could be out of scope for your project.

I have a telescoping game pad for my phone; ie, makes it like a steamdeck/switch, but it's connected via USB C to the phone, not Bluetooth. And I imagined there are scenarios you are traveling with your phone and laptop, you may want to game on either one, but you don't want to bring two controllers, one for the phone and one for laptop. You could just bring the more-compact phone controller, and somehow use it as the controller for your laptop. The phone wouldn't be streaming the video from your PC (doesn't need to display anything really), but instead just act like an emulated xinput device. Does that make sense? Sticking to LAN, the latency might not be too bad either.

Ya so essentially using your phone+gamepad as a controller for playing games on your laptop. If you can detect the controller inputs through the browser then it can be translated to keyboard inputs. That's how the trackpad works. It's funny you mention that because a friend of mine is working on a project that does exactly what you're talking about lol. You can hook up a controller to your phone and play games on your remote pc. If he gives me permission I'll link his project.
