powerkeys

Purpose

powerkeys brings VS Code-style keyboard shortcuts to modern web apps. It handles scoped bindings, multi-step sequences, when clauses, editable-target policies, shortcut recording, atomic rebinding through binding sets, pre-dispatch candidate guards, and external availability checks in one small runtime.

Installation

pnpm add powerkeys

  },
})
