vscode-ext-keyboard-65

Have you being excited to buy a new 65% keyboard, only to realize that your F12 key is not working anymore?. This extension is for you!

This extension will reassign all the default Mac keybindings that work with Function Keys (e.g. F12 or Fn+F12) to work with Cmd+Shift (e.g. Cmd+Shift+=).

Restrictions

• The keybindings are for Mac ABC Input Source (Settings > Keyboard > Input Sources). ABC is English.

Considerations

• My tests were done using my EPOMAKER TH-68PRO ANSI-ENGLISH (bought in 2024).

Roadmap

• Support other input sources (e.g. ES). This requires to detect input source.
• Support to enable/disable the extension.

Notes:

• Why not buying a 75% keyboard? Well, that would've been the best if I would've knownb this was going to happen :chuckles.
• Why not using hidutil? Because mostly I only need Function Keys inside VSCode.
• Why not using Karabiners? Because I don't want to run a third party software just for this. Remapping keys in VSCode should be faster to execute (although not 100% perfect).
