Thank you for addressing the Electron discussion thoroughly on Github. I am always very disappointed to see an application I am interested in using Electron. It is often enough of an issue for me to immediately write it off as something I will never use. I hope to see more Tauri instead, but you also addressed some minor issues about that option.

I'll have to play around with this application.

Kando looks incredible - congrats! And I can see how it works well for the use cases you described. Maybe it would be possible to add keyboard support? One could use left and right arrow keys to highlight an item and the up arrow key to select it.

Rofi has that search to match but iant a pie menu

yes, I was thinking more of having a kind of "dotfile" approach to all my configs for automation on macOs, as there are so many different overlapping apps like BTT, KeyboardMaestro, skhd, Kando, Alfred, etc

I'd love to have a `.automation` folder in my home where I can add descriptions of all my menus, keyboard shortcuts, scripts, Shortcut App scripts, BTT config, etc, and each time I modify them it updates in the app

It would be nice to have a kind of overview of all my automations

Also I'd like it that each file is some kind of "executable markdown" container which can contain textual description, images, etc, and the scripts/configs themselves, and the bindings

Something like this

    name: emoji-picker
    author: xxx
    description: Various emoji-related bindings
    version: 1.0
    url: xxx
    license: ...
    --
    
    ```@deps
    ts: mdex>=1.0,<2.0
    ```
    
    ```@deps test
    // deps only for testing, etc
    ```
    
    ```@include
    // can seamlessly include other .mdex, libs, code, repos, etc
    ```
    
    # Open emoji picker
    
    The Raycast emoji finder is clean and easy to use, so I'll use it instead of the system picker
    
    ```@code ts openPicker
    const openPicker = async (prompt: string = "") => {
        api.url.open(`raycast://extensions/emoji?prompt={prompt}`);
    }
    ```
    
    ```@test
    // define some code to run tests and ensure everything works
    ```
    
    ## Trigger on `fn` key
    
    ```@binding key
    trigger: @on(platform == "darwin") key=[fn]
    action: code openPicker @(openPicker();)
    # equivalently, action: api open("raycast://...")
    ```
    
    ## When called as a CLI, allow to pass an optional prompt to the emoji picker
    This installs an `emoji` cli, which parses with an optional prompt
    ```@binding cli
    name: emoji
    args: [prompt=""]
    action: code openPicker @(openPicker(prompt);)
    ```
    
    ## Add custom bindings through extensions
    ```@binding ext:alfred
    keyword: emoji [query=""]
    action: code openPicker @(openPicker(query);)
    ```
    
    ## Every hour, refresh the emojis
    ```@binding cron
    every: 1h
    action: code openPicker @(refreshEmojiData();)
    ```
    
    ## Create an UI
    ```@binding ui
    name: emoji-ui
    layout: ...
    html: ...
    css: ...
    ```
    
    ## Usage:
    
    ```sh
    mdex list emoji
    mdex info emoji-picker
    mdex install @user/emoji-picker
    mdex install emoji-picker.mdex # install or refresh script, install deps, setup key-bindings
    mdex test emoji-picker.mdex
    emoji "clown" # cli
    mdex uninstall emoji-picker
    # or trigger the `fn` shortcut
    mdex logs emoji-picker
    ```
