How I Built a Sensitivity Converter Tool for Gamers (And You Can Too)

Have you ever switched games only to find that your mouse sensitivity feels completely off?

As a long-time FPS player, I constantly found myself Googling how to convert mouse sensitivity between games like Valorant, CS:GO, Apex Legends, and others. There are a few tools online, but I wanted something cleaner, faster, and more focused.

That’s why I built Sensitivity Converter — a free tool that helps gamers convert mouse sensitivity between games with ease.

🕹️ What the Tool Does

Converts mouse sensitivity values between popular games.
Uses consistent formulas for accurate translation.
Lightweight and fast to use — no login, no ads, no distractions.

⚙️ How I Built It

This was a fun project to work on. Here's a quick breakdown of the stack and how it works:

🔧 Tech Stack

Frontend: Vanilla JS + Tailwind CSS (for simplicity)
Hosting: Vercel (lightning-fast deployments)
Logic: Based on real conversion formulas from gaming communities (e.g., 360 distance, DPI scaling)

✨ UX Goals

Mobile-first design
Minimal UI
One-click copy and conversion

🧠 What I Learned

Gamers appreciate speed and simplicity over fancy visuals.
SEO is super important — I used structured data and meta tags to help it rank for "mouse sensitivity converter" keywords.
Testing formulas across games was surprisingly tricky (some games scale weirdly!).
