kmonad - An advanced keyboard manager

zet - Zettelkasten Repo. This is where I dump my knowledge as it happens, all my zettels ("slips" or notes) about almost anything and everything. The idea is rather simple really and very powerful. Be warned, however, just because something is here doesn't mean it is accurate or even that I still believe it.

xcape - Linux utility to configure modifier keys to act as other keys when pressed and released on their own.

key-mapper - 🎮 An easy to use tool to change the mapping of your input device buttons. [Moved to: https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper]

dual-key-remap - Remap any key to any other two keys on Windows 🔥. Remap CapsLock to both Ctrl and Escape! (It's like xcape for windows!)
