Turn your keyboard into hot lasagna.

lushlayers

lushlayers is a configuration generator for Karabiner-Elements.

It generates JSON files for ~/.config/karabiner/assets/complex_modifications/.

Why?

Karabiner-Elements is configured through JSON files that are really verbose, making them hard to read and edit. To simplify writing configurations, tools exist that generate the JSON from a more user-friendly format. lushlayers is such a tool. It was inspired by Goku and KMonad, and combines some of their ideas.

I really like KMonad's configuration syntax. Unfortunately I can't get KMonad installed on macOS Ventura. To get over the heartbreak I rolled my own tool with a similar configuration syntax. I haven't documented the config yet, but you'll probably get the gist from KMonad's tutorial and my examples.

Disclaimer

This tool doesn't have nearly as many features as KMonad or Goku. I've only implemented what I needed for my own config so far. Ideas and feature requests are welcome.
