+First, press `Connect` to establish a connection to your Transmitter. As soon as it is working the current stick positions will be visualized. Then, press `Create` to create a virtual HID Gamepad.

+As long as both have been initialized, you can use your Transmitter in your Simulator. The connection will be closed and the virtual device destroyed automatically when you close the App window.

+# For Developers
+
+You don’t need to use the included Makefile if you want to change something in the GUI App. Just directly open the XCode project file.
+
+However, the makefile allows you not only to build the GUI app, but also a distributable Installer including the foohid dependency. For this, just run `make distribute`. The finished installer will be placed in `bin/SerialGamepad.pkg`.
+
+To build the command-line apps and the GUI apps, just run `make all`. You can also install all of them using `sudo make install`. The cli-binaries will go to `/usr/local/bin`, the App to `/Applications`.
