HyperCaps transforms the Caps Lock key into a versatile productivity superpower for macOS users. Instead of being limited to the traditional Caps Lock function, this key becomes a "Magic Key" that significantly enhances keyboard efficiency and workflow speed.
The core features include tapping Caps Lock for Escape or Delete functionality, holding it to activate the Hyper Key (Cmd+Opt+Ctrl+Shift combination), and double-tapping to toggle the original Caps Lock. Additionally, users can navigate using H/J/K/L or W/A/S/D keys while holding Caps Lock, eliminating the need to reach for arrow keys. The Hyper Key is customizable for 3 or 2 key combinations, and there's an option to remap Command keys to Backspace/Delete for Windows switchers.
HyperCaps operates through a lightweight menu bar application that requires no complex configuration files. Settings are adjustable directly from the menu bar icon, and a convenient HUD displays the current key status. The application runs natively in the background with minimal system impact.
The benefits include eliminating "finger gymnastics" with complex shortcuts, improving typing speed by keeping hands on the home row, and creating global shortcuts that don't conflict with other applications. It's particularly useful for Vim users who need easy Escape access and anyone seeking more efficient text navigation and editing capabilities.
Target users include macOS productivity enthusiasts, developers, Vim users, and Windows switchers looking for familiar keyboard functionality. The application is built with SwiftUI for native performance, operates 100% offline with no external connections, and requires macOS 13+ on Apple Silicon or Intel processors.
