Show HN: Shortcat meets Mouseless, keyboard-first way to control your Mac

1•creativedg•1h ago
About two years ago, I built KeyboardStack as my first macOS app. Since then, I've kept working on it, fixing bugs, improving performance, and adding new features.

I spend most of my day in front of a computer, and one thing that always bothered me was constantly switching between my keyboard and mouse or trackpad, even for something as simple as clicking a button.

I wanted to make my entire Mac keyboard-first, not just my browser or terminal.

So I built KeyboardStack, a native macOS app that lets you navigate, click, and scroll using just your keyboard.

There are already some great tools like Shortcat, Vimac, and Mouseless. My goal was to combine the best of both approaches:

Hint Mode: Displays keyboard hints over clickable elements like buttons and links. Type a few letters to interact with them.

Grid Mode: Displays a grid over your screen. Type a few letters to click anywhere, even when an element isn't detected as clickable.

There are also modes for scrolling, moving the cursor, and navigating windows in Mission Control.

You can learn more at https://keyboardstack.com

I'm still actively working on KeyboardStack and would love to hear your feedback, especially from people who already use tools like Shortcat, Homerow, or Mouseless.
