Show HN: Keyboardminder – Use the keyboard more and build a better workflow

A set of tools to help you use your keyboard more and build a better workflow.

Overview:

I'm excited to share Keyboardminder, an open-source project that helps you use the keyboard more by getting out of the habit of using your mouse or trackpad. This is the first project in a series aimed to help you build a better workflow.

Tools:

Disable Taskbar: Disable the taskbar so that you remember to use the keyboard to switch windows. The taskbar can be temporarily re-enabled with a shortcut. Require CapsLock: Caps Lock is required to be held to do some mouse actions. Time Between Clicks: Adds a wait time between clicks after a certain number is reached.

GitHub Repository: Check it out, star it, fork it, and contribute:

Why it Matters:

This is my first open source project of hopefully many. It lays the groundwork for those to come in a series of projects aimed to give users a powerful workflow they can use to efficiently complete their work.

With some funding I will be able to continue to develop these projects on the side. I've been testing these tools for a few months now and still find them very useful. You can find a much more in depth explanation of everything on GitHub. Feel free to reach out if you want to hear more about my story and why I am doing this.

Feedback and contributions are highly appreciated!
