Valve has confirmed that it is working on bringing SteamOS support to rival handheld devices like the ROG Ally. Dual booting into Windows on the Steam Deck is still far away, though.
This is what I’ve done for years. It just auto starts after OS launch in big picture and I grab my controller. Occasionally I have my wireless keyboard for something but it works fine.
I don’t own a steam deck they’re not available from valve here in Australia. So I’m sure I’m missing out on some polish. But I’ve never seen it so I don’t miss it.
People come over, sit on the couch, grab a controller, steam is loaded, they play game. The OS and then steam is out of the way in a flash. After all I’m after the game not the launcher.

Glad it works for you. Couch Co-op feeling like such a rarity these days.
