Keyviz is a free and open-source software to visualise your keystrokes and mouse actions in real time! Let your audience know what handy shortcuts/keys you're pressing during screencasts, presentations, collaborations, or whenever you need it.

# 🎨 Stylize

Don't restrain yourself to just black & white! You can customize every aspect of the visualization. The visualisation's style, size, colour (modifier and regular keys), border, icon, etc.

Powerful and easy-to-use configuration options.

- Filter normal keys and only display shortcuts like Cmd + K **(Default)**
- Adjust the visualisation position on the screen
- Decide how much the visualisation lingers on the screen before animating out
- Switch between animation presets to animate your visualisation in & out
