keyrs 0.2.1

First public release of keyrs - a pure Rust keyboard remapper for Wayland.

What is keyrs?

keyrs lets you remap keyboard shortcuts on Wayland compositors. It's designed for users who want consistent shortcuts across applications, especially those with macOS/Command-key muscle memory.

Features

  • Pure Rust - Single binary, no Python or heavy dependencies
  • Wayland native - Works with evdev and uinput
  • Application-aware - Different keymaps per application (requires compositor support)
  • Profile system - Pre-built profiles for common use cases (VS Code, terminal, etc.)
  • Interactive install/uninstall - Guided setup with optional component removal
  • Systemd integration - Runs as a user service
  • TUI included - Terminal UI for monitoring and control

Installation

# Build from source
cargo install --path .

# Install service
~/.local/bin/keyrs-service install
~/.local/bin/keyrs-service start

Configuration

Config lives at ~/.config/keyrs/config.toml . See the docs /docs/ for syntax reference and examples.

What's Changed

• Interactive uninstall with optional removal prompts
• Use CARGO_PKG_VERSION for automatic version sync
• Documentation improvements

Service Management

New keyrs-service commands:

keyrs-service profile-set <name>     # Set active profile
keyrs-service profile-select         # Interactive selection
keyrs-service apply-config           # Compose and validate config

## Improvements

• Respects  NO_COLOR  environment variable
• Profiles work after installation (runtime mode)
• Confirmation prompts with  --yes  to skip
•  --dry-run  mode for testing

# Or specify a profile
