    A simple hotkey daemon for Windows

  • komorebi

    A tiling window manager for Windows 🍉

  • I'm the maintainer of a tiling window manager written in Rust which has been shared here before, and until recently I was happy enough using AHK to handle key bindings for all my twm actions since it was easy enough to generate an AHK wrapper library for the clap CLI using Rust.

  • 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.

  • skhd

    Simple hotkey daemon for macOS

  • After getting frustrated trying to update the library generation code to conform to the AHK2 syntax changes, I decided to run with an idea that I've had for a while now: writing my own simple hotkey daemon for windows based on skhd and sxhkd.

  • sxhkd

    Simple X hotkey daemon

  • After getting frustrated trying to update the library generation code to conform to the AHK2 syntax changes, I decided to run with an idea that I've had for a while now: writing my own simple hotkey daemon for windows based on skhd and sxhkd.

  • chumsky

    Write expressive, high-performance parsers with ease.

  • Getting the basics of this project done was surprisingly easy thanks to chumsky, which I'm sure most people know about by now, and a little-known but quite ergonomic crate for handling system-wide hotkeys on Windows called windows-hotkeys.

  • windows-hotkeys

    A lightweight, threadsafe and ergonomic rust crate to handle system-wide hotkeys on windows
