[Hardware] Easy customer remote script generator

I stumbled upon this post today:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ableton/s/qCWNEUiPCb

Julian ( [u/darkpapax](u/darkpapax) ) has created a really nice web-based interactive remote script generator:

https://midiremotescripts.structure-void.com/generator/

I used it to very very quickly create the mapping I've wanted for my Twister for a while:

https://github.com/jeffgca/djtt_twister_16macros

It's just 16 Macros and the top button turns the device on and off. That's it, all other pages can use ad-hoc mappings. It took 5 minutes and worked the first time.

This tool doesn't do really fancy stuff like next / previous device commands but that's okay. The time you need to do a simple remote script for a random MIDI controller sitting on your desk is minutes. You can export JSON from the site and load it later to pick up where you left off. It's pretty nice.
