Mouseless: ditch the mouse and control your computer like a movie hacker

Remember those movie scenes where the hacker types furiously and windows fly around without a single click? Mouseless gives you that superpower without the Hollywood casting. It's a tool that lets you control macOS, Linux, or Windows exclusively from the keyboard — no mouse, just hotkeys.

How does it work? You assign key combinations to any action: open an app, switch windows, copy files, run scripts. Mouseless doesn't just emulate clicks — it gives you full system control. The devs clearly took inspiration from Vim and i3wm, but built a UI that won't make you cry during your first hour of use.

Sure, it'll hurt at first: you'll be poking at keys trying to remember which combo opens the terminal. But after a week, you'll look at mouse-wielding colleagues like they're cavemen. And yes, it's perfect for anyone tired of the constant keyboard-mouse dance — especially if you write code or live in the terminal.

Out of the box, Mouseless offers ready-made profiles for popular apps, but customization is limitless. You can even bind macros for entire sequences — like "open IDE, run tests, post results to Slack" with one key. Just don't overdo it and forget how to turn on the computer.

METABYTE studio comment: Mouseless is a great example of how automating routine boosts productivity. At METABYTE, we also love eliminating unnecessary clicks — only in our projects it happens at the code level, not the OS. Though who knows, maybe the next feature will be hotkeys for deployment?
