What is Vial?

Vial

Vial is a cool tool that helps you customize your keyboard experience. You know how typing on a regular QWERTY keyboard can get uncomfortable after a while? Well, that discomfort can lead to wrist pain, often called carpal tunnel syndrome. But don't worry! There are some simple fixes like using standing desks or wrist rests. However, if you are ready to change things up and retrain your fingers, you can either build your keyboard or order a custom one that suits you perfectly.

Explore Custom Keyboards

Now, let's talk about different types of keyboards. There are ortholinear and split keyboards that look pretty different from the standard ones. This difference might make it hard to get used to typing again. That's where Vial comes in! It lets you create a layout that matches your new keyboard setup using special tools.

Easy Keyboard Mapping

This app connects directly with your keyboard at the HID level, which means it can do way more than just basic scripting with programs like AutoHotKey. With Vial, you can remap keys and even set up macros to make your work easier and faster.

Personalized Shortcuts

The great thing about Vial is that it allows you to switch between different layouts based on what you're doing. So if you're working on various apps with different shortcut needs, this is super handy! Plus, if you're feeling creative and want to add more input methods—like knobs or scroll wheels—Vial supports rotary encoders too! You can use these for navigating web pages or adjusting media volume with ease.
