Intro

Karabiner and KMonad are great open source software. Don't forget to support the authors and contributors.

If you want to try home row mods on OSX, don't use Karabiner but KMonad. KMonad is harder at the beginning but then it is easier than Karabiner. Creating layers in KMonad is trivial and without drawbacks, while it is impossible in Karabiner without drawbacks.

You need to compile a PR of the project. Install https://github.com/pqrs-org/Karabiner-DriverKit-VirtualHIDDevice/releases/download/v2.1.0/Karabiner-DriverKit-VirtualHIDDevice-2.1.0.pkg

Podman with docker-compose on MacOS.

Podman an alternative to Docker Desktop on MacOS

Getting podman installed and started is super easy.
Just use brew to install it.

Now since podman uses a VM just like the Docker Client on MacOS we need to initialize that and start it.

	# This script enables the Mover Tuning plugin for Unraid to be able to exclude files and/or folders.
	# Script activity can be viewed in Unraid's system log (Tools -> System Log).

	# First, it reads lists of directories and files from provided text files.
	# Then, it converts any Windows line endings to Unix line endings in these lists.
	# Next, it checks if the paths listed in the files are valid directories or files.
	# Finally, valid file and directory paths are compiled into a single output file for use by the Mover Tuning plugin.
