TanStack Hotkeys
Overview
TanStack Hotkeys is a type-safe keyboard shortcuts library for React with template-string bindings, cross-platform Mod key abstraction (Cmd on macOS, Ctrl on Windows/Linux), and SSR-friendly utilities. It provides hooks for single hotkeys, multi-key sequences, shortcut recording, and real-time key state tracking, plus platform-aware display formatting.
When to use: Adding keyboard shortcuts to React apps, recording user-defined hotkeys, detecting held modifier keys, displaying platform-specific shortcut labels, implementing Vim-style key sequences.
When NOT to use: Non-React apps without a wrapper (core package exists but React is the primary target), complex input handling that needs full keymap management (consider a dedicated keymap library).
