Just use it, there is no dev needed. I use it for quite some time.

Thanks for your answer, but please confirm we are talking about the same devices, this is not a plug and play device:

Yes, we are talking anout the same device, however I have the smalest one with 15 buttons in use. I use it for TS, MSFS, DCS and Aerofly FS4. The question is rather what do you want to do with it that would require the help of a IPACS developer?

Thanks, I was asking if they work with the sim, and I thought that developers should know
. I didn't know that it were possible to use them with AFS4, I couldn't find any reference to them in the tutorials.

They can be used in any software that allows keystrokes. They were primarly built for streamers and only later disvovered by the simulation community. Although I fly in VR my stream deck is a big help even I cannot see it but I can feel it and know which button does what even with several pages. I have mainly buttons for outside views, for moving within the cockpit forward, backward, up, down, center view, speedbrake, time, sight, parking brake etc.

Edit: thank you, I received the Stream Deck XL and did further research, and realized the full potential it has. It will be nice to use with AFS4.

Hi! look, I did my first ever Stream Deck XL profile for Aerofly FS4. It was very easy to do.
At the left you see the controls configuration in the sim, and at the right the included Stream Deck software, that must be installed in your computer to be able to communicate and program the Stream Deck. It is very simple and visual to program. When you press a button in the stream deck, it is configured to press a key in the keyboard. You can do all the profiles you want.
For initial reference, in the arrows I left the key I am using, but later I will delete them to have a cleaner interfase.
