xremap VS kmonad

I'm using this successfully: https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap

I could use some external key remappers like xremap. But I'm already using kanata and I can't use two key remappers for the same keyboards (kanata (or kmonad for that matter) doesn't allow application-specific remaps).

If they are, it seems that https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap should also work.

k0kubun/xremap worked on ChromeOS (developer mode).

As far as binding the J,K,H,L keys, have you considered using xremap? I use it the same way for a VIM like modifier.

I find xremap to be much friendlier.

Have a look at xremap for a general solution (X, Wayland, ...) to set up global key chords

keyd looks pretty nice. I have been using xremap (https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap/) to do the following remaps:

Pretty clever, but another option is home row mods

Can use KMonad to not need QMK programmable keyboard: https://github.com/kmonad/kmonad

Or AutoHotKey scripts: https://github.com/eugenesvk/Win.ahk/tree/modtap

have you actually tried that? afaik they don't get you the perfect home row mods due to some limitations re. how they implement the tap vs hold logic

I use kmonad[1] to have QMK-like functionality on any keyboard.

You can create F13-F24 purely in software with key mapping tools. On Windows, one way is with the PowerToys Keyboard Manager: remap some unimportant keys to F13, F14, etc. Another way is with KMonad (cross platform), and define the keymap with KeyF13, KeyF14, etc.
