How to add custom keyboard shortcuts to any website
Most web apps ship almost no keyboard shortcuts. Here is how to map your own to any action, on any site, in a couple of minutes.
Most of the web apps you live in every day ship with a handful of keyboard shortcuts at best — and none let you add your own. HotKeyNavigator fixes that: you can map any key to any action on any website, whether the site supports shortcuts or not.
Map your first shortcut
Open the command palette on the page you want to automate, pick a key, and bind it to an action — open a link, expand a snippet, or click an element on the page. If the key is already in use, conflict detection tells you before you save.
Go beyond a single action
The real power shows up when you chain steps together. A single key can navigate to a page, wait for it to load, click a button, fill a field, and run a line of your own JavaScript — the whole workflow, hands on the keyboard.
- Bind frequent navigation to one-key deep links.
- Trigger text templates with variables from a short prefix.
- Replay a recorded click sequence whenever you need it.
Start with one shortcut you reach for constantly. Once it is muscle memory, you will want everything mapped.
