More and more apps start to adopt some kind of command palette or goto anything search field. Holding ⌘ as a modifier key while pressing other keys still works as before, so you can ⌘ + Tab to switch to every other app and use shortcuts like ⌘ + T. This might sound pointless, but don’t underestimate the time you can save in a day with this! How often do you press ⌘ + Tab? How often do you switch between only the frontmost and the previous app? Switching between two apps becomes a single keypress with this tweak, and I cannot stress enough how much comfort it adds to my workflow. # My customizations # Single ⌘ press switches to previous app
#KARABINER KEYCHRON FULL#
There are many sample configs over the internet, and I’ll post my full config at the end of this post as well. The best way to learn the format in my opinion is to copy rules from others and start tweaking. JSON config format to make full use of it. Karabiner allows you to set up simple key mappings from the GUI (mapping Caps Lock to ESC, for example), but you need to learn its bare If you’d like to use the keyboard with multiple machines, you can set up a git repo to sync Karabiner’s config file between devices (like I do with my work and personal MacBook). I don’t mind this at all, because this allows me to apply the same tweaks to both the Keychron and my MacBook’s built-in keyboard (I don’t use the MacBook docked all the time). Unlike custom keyboards, my Keychron can’t be tweaked on the firmware level, so the second-best option is to remap keys on the OS level. Karabiner is a macOS app that remaps keys on the OS level. I will list my current config below, but my setup is always evolving as I experiment with new ideas. Keychron K1-does have arrow keys and a number row, I started experimenting with ideas from other people’s shortcuts and tricks, and immediately got addicted to a few tweaks. Think of inventing your own Fn key combos, or multiple new modifier keys for different tasks. Many keyboard enthusiasts use tiny keyboards without arrow keys or a number row, thanks to clever key combinations that output a character without a dedicated key.
r/mechanicalkeyboards, I realized people use all sorts of crazy layouts and key remappings to make their keyboard more ergonomic and do more with fewer keystrokes. But after immersing myself in the science of keyboard layouts and This post is not going to be about mechanical keyboards in general. I started improving my home office setup thanks to COVID and the permanent work from home setup, and my first improvement was getting a nice and comfortable mechanical keyboard. …although I can only recommend getting one.
