Keymappings

My Karabiner-Elements keymaps, which can be found at .config/goku/karabiner.edn, is defined using GokuRakuJoudo which uses it to generate a karabiner.json file.

Shortcuts/Keybinds

System-wide

Shortcuts for system-wide utilities such as controlling Yabai (the window manager) or opening certain applications use the following combination of modifier keys (referred to as "Super"): ⌘⌥^ (and optionally )

We don't use the Fn key because it's not detectable when setting shortcuts in certain applications.

Yabai

Karabiner is used for the keybinds which can be found at .config/goku/karabiner.edn

The general rule for using "Shift" is if a command is a complementary one (e.g. increasing height instead of width)

<Super+J> Focus window down
<Super+Shift+J> Move window down
<Super+K> Focus window up
<Super+Shift+K> Move window up
<Super+L> Narrow/expand window to left
<Super+Shift+L> Increase window height
<Super+H> Narrow/expand window to right
<Super+Shift+H> Decrease window height
<Super+M> Focus master window
<Super+Shift+M> Move window to master
<Super+I> Increase number of master windows
<Super+D> Decrease number of master windows
<Super+[> Focus previous display
<Super+Shift+[> Move window to previous display
<Super+]> Focus next display
<Super+Shift+]> Focus window to next display
<Super+Z> Minimize focused window <Super+Q> Quit focused window

VSCode

My VSCode shortcuts generally adhere to the following principles:

- Used for "navigation" actions (e.g. changing views, go to definition, switching between editors, etc.)
- Used for "non-navigation" actions (usually modifies state, but also includes actions like search/find)
⌘⇧ - Used for complementary "non-navigation" actions, e.g. opposites (⌘Z = Undo, ⌘⇧Z = Redo), or scope changes (⌘F = Find in current file, ⌘⇧F = Find in all files)
^ - Not used for any VSCode shortcuts - reserved for the Vim extension
^⌥ - Used for shortcuts that set/toggle some sort of option
