I built RELYR after living in AutoHotkey — what would you automate first?
I started with AutoHotkey.
Holding Space or CapsLock gave me another layer of shortcuts. Holding the right mouse button and pressing a key could trigger another action. I also had folders that automatically extracted archives when a file appeared.
It was genuinely useful because it all worked with the ordinary keyboard and mouse I already owned. The part I grew tired of was rewriting code every time I wanted to change something.
AI helped me modify those scripts, and that made me wonder: what if configuring this did not require writing code at all? That is why I started building RELYR.
It began as a way to configure key mappings without code, but I kept enjoying the project and added macros, mouse gestures, and an on-screen Deck panel. As one person maintaining it, finding every bug has become difficult.
I am looking for honest feedback that helps make it better:
• What would you assign first?
• Which part would make you hesitate to try it?
• If you try it, what feels awkward or breaks?

RELYR is a personal open-source project and is not code-signed yet, so Windows warnings or false positives from security software are possible. Please do not install it if that makes you uncomfortable.
