This is a simple repo for me to aggregate all my Colemak resources.
Because I love to type with Colemak, and I want to have access to my tools everywhere I compute.
Nothing's more frustrating than navigating all over the internet to get set up on Colemak on a new machine, or having to figure out how to get productive without administrative access. Also, when helping a new Colemak user, this is where I want to send them for helpful advocacy and practice materials.
My AHK Colemak file for working on Windows machines is in this repo. Use PortableApps.com to
My Karabiner scripts are in this repo. The main one of interest is the Python script for creating a Karabiner-Elements json config.
