kanata v1.0.5: an advanced keyboard remapper for Windows+Linux

68 points MrTheFoolish

I'm pleased to announce v1.0.5 of my Windows+Linux keyboard remapper: kanata.

If you know of QMK or kmonad then you're already familiar with the use case of this project. If you haven't heard of those, a short description of what kanata does is:

Add remapping, layers, and multi-use keys to improve the usability and comfort of typing on any keyboard.

There is a demo video as well.

In my previous post for this project, its name was still "ktrl (rename pending)". Since then, some notable features that were added are:

  • Windows support
  • one-shot keys
  • tap-dance keys
  • left, right, middle mouse clicks
