## Introduction

Sonoran CAD's MacOS and Windows desktop applications offer direct integration with [Stream Deck hardware](https://www.elgato.com/us/en/p/stream-deck). By installing our official Stream Deck plugin, users can customize layouts and buttons to control their CAD faster than ever before.

Don't have a physical Stream Deck? Download the [free Stream Deck Mobile app](https://www.elgato.com/us/en/s/stream-deck-mobile)!
