Features

• Global or Scoped Shortcuts: By default, shortcuts are global, but you can easily define specific scopes in your Vue template to limit where shortcuts are applicable.

• Easy Registration: Shortcuts can be registered within the mounted hook of any Vue template, streamlining the process of adding keyboard functionalities.

• Automatic Deregistration: Any shortcuts registered are automatically removed when the template is destroyed, ensuring no memory leaks or unintended behavior occur.

• Global Configuration Options: Customize your shortcuts with optional global configurations, including excludeTags and a preventWhen function to manage shortcut behavior across your application.

• Extensive Key Mapping: A comprehensive list of supported keyboard shortcuts, including letters, numbers, function keys, and control keys, providing versatility for complex applications.

• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Supports both Mac and Windows environments—using the meta key for Mac and control for Windows, ensuring a consistent user experience across different systems.

• Simplified Interactions: By limiting interactions to specific components or areas of your app, you can prevent shortcuts from triggering where they shouldn’t, enhancing user control and preventing accidental commands.
