August 10, 2014 Update: Latest version is now lirc_web v0.0.8

As part of the Open Source Universal Remote project I’ve been creating a simple and touch friendly user interface for LIRC. In a previous post I covered Controlling LIRC From the Web, where I introduced version 0.0.1 of lirc_web. Lirc_web is a simple NodeJS app I created for controlling LIRC from the web.

Since then, I’ve created a set of UI styles and fixed a number of touch related bugs with the project. I’m excited to announce v0.0.3 of lirc_web which is now on GitHub.

Here is a screen shot of the remote listing page:

Upon tapping on any remote, you’ll be taken to a page that shows all known commands for that remote:

I have a long list of intended improvements, so if you’re interested in contributing to the project please let me know. As always, if you discover any bugs or have any feedback, please let me know in the comments.
