Just switched last night!!!

So far it's been great, but I need a way to migrate over my keybindings from xmodmap. I tried searching but everywhere I go gives a different answer. Can anyone help guide me in a direction? I'm primarily looking to remap caps to escape/control on hold. Would be great to remap some unused keys on my laptops keyboard to media keys as well. Thanks!!

Have you tried the instructions on their github page?

https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki#keyboard-layout

I haven't tried that, but would be happy about a feedback from you if it works. So that I know what to do if I switch from Herbstluft to Sway one day.

Ah... Read the docs, should have known ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Knew I should have read the docs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In my (not very thorough) read, I saw something about the bindings being per application. Maybe I should stop reading documentation before falling asleep

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
