Making a controller to be used in a game in Javascripit

Please, I need help on how I can be able to connect a controller and make it control my game. All this on Javascript.

Hello and welcome to the community :smiley:!
The HTML5 gamepad API should help you with that.

Uhmm, please, what is that, the HTML GAMEPAD IPA

I don’t know to much about it because I only started interest in it because I love gaming. I’m still trying to figure it out but its quite confusing for a beginner like me. sorry.
This is a picture of an gamepad:


You could for sure use other options like touchpad and motion.
I’m far from being a Professional programmer so I might very well be completely off mark about this.
