Honestly, sometimes it feels like Steam prefers Xbox controllers over anything else. Never had an issue.
It's super easy! First, make sure your Xbox controller is either connected to your PC via USB or if it's a wireless model, connected via Bluetooth. Then, just fire up Steam, head into the 'Settings' menu, click on 'Controller,' and then 'General Controller Settings.' You'll see a checkbox for 'Xbox Configuration Support' – make sure that's ticked, and you're golden! Steam will automatically recognize your controller, and you can customize the settings from there.
I tried it once and had to fiddle with settings forever. Keyboard and mouse forever!
