  • keyd

    A key remapping daemon for linux.

    • Not directly an answer, but try using keyd to refine a key remapping.

  • fcitx5

    maybe a new fcitx.

    • To allow use swaymsg to change the layout by fcitx is still a todo-task. https://github.com/fcitx/fcitx5/issues/438

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
