Design your MoErgo layout by defining what you want it to do, not how ZMK works.

From Double Taps to Home-Row Mods, define your intent and let GLIDE handle the rest.

⚠️ GLIDE supports the new Layout Editor BETA features for Mod-Morph, Tap-Dance, and Sticky Keys.

Importing these features into Layout Editor requires the upcoming Layout Editor BETA.

Quickstart
Graphical Layout & Intent Definition Editor — a visual keymap editor for MoErgo's ZMK-based keyboards
Effortlessly simple

GLIDE works alongside your MoErgo Layout Editor to give you total control over complex ZMK behaviors. Define your intent, apply powerful layout automations, and export straight back into your keyboard’s workflow.

1. Export layout from MoErgo

We start by downloading your current layout as a JSON file from the MoErgo Layout Editor. Your keyboard settings remain completely safe until you choose to import your changes back.

1. Open the MoErgo Layout Editor.

2. Click Export to download your layout as a .json file.

2. Define your intent in GLIDE

Open GLIDE in your web browser and load your downloaded JSON file.

• Move & Swap: Click and drag any key onto another to swap their key bindings instantly.

• Apply Automations: Open the Flows Catalog (the cube icon in the upper right) to apply complete Home-Row Mod suites, symbol layers, or gaming layouts with a single click.

• Edit Behaviors: Click any key to set up hold-taps, sticky keys, tap-dances, or mod-morphs without writing raw code.

• Configure Combos: Use the Graphical Combo Editor to visually map key combinations with real-time conflict checking.

• Trackpad Controls (Go60): Map Cirque trackpad gestures, scroll speeds, and click modes visually.

3. Bring it back to MoErgo

When your intent definition is complete, export your modified JSON file:

1. Click Export in the top navigation bar to download your updated .json file.

2. Return to the MoErgo Layout Editor.

3. Click Restore (Import JSON) and choose your updated file.

4. Click Build to compile your layout into official firmware.

Pro Tips for Power Users

❯ Offline & Standalone Use

GLIDE can run entirely offline without needing an active internet connection. You can clone the repository or build a single bundled .html file to run locally:

Known bugs @ limitations

The Ultimate Goal: One Unified Home for Moosy Tools

What’s on the Radar for Next Iterations of GLIDE
We are aiming to take visual, intent-driven customization to a whole new level:

Bug Fixes

• Primary Action: When using a custom long name, the trash icon overlaps.

• Touchpad: Does not support actions yet. We may need to redesign it anyway.

Limitations & Improvements

• Integrity Validation and usage tracking a behavior can be deleted even when it is referenced by another behavior.  (Layout Cleaner)

• Search Assistant: Enrich the content and possible on text.   

  • Select a key and say 'Paste' or 'One Shot Shift' combined with ...

  • I'm defining a key and I want it to 'copy' (ctrl-c on windows and lg(c) on mac or 'switch layer', what are the top 10 use cases)

• Improve Mobile use: Currently limited support for mobile use

• Click key to edit, right for options, .... text is annoying on the screen.  Should we  suppress via config?

• Startup Speed: Improve startup time by showing the initial screen first.

• Theme: Make Pro-Dark the default theme.

• Touchpad: intent based improvements, what are the most used actions?

• Print/PDF export: similar to Kiilix

• Flows: PR36 Scheme Flows improve and expand to Go60

• More Flows use cases - see below suggestions

• Context aware - understand intent, also needs context

🤖 Here’s the complete list, reordered around user value, safety, and how broadly each automation can help.

Tier 1 — Core infrastructure / safety

1. Keymap Doctor — Linter, no mutation. Detect dangling behavior/layer references, undefined macros/behaviors, duplicate combo positions, wrong layer sizes, and other structural problems.

2. Safe Layer Mover — Move/reorder layers while automatically rewriting every affected &mo, &to, &lt, &tog, macro parameter, combo layer array, etc.

3. Undoable Refactor Engine — Give every automation a structured operation with Preview → Apply → Undo, plus a human-readable diff.

4. Duplicate/Conflict Detector — Detect overlapping combos, HRM conflicts, unreachable bindings, conflicting morphs, and other semantic collisions.

5. Config Backup / Snapshot Manager — Automatically snapshot before mutations and let users restore previous configurations.

6. Unused/Orphaned Behavior Cleaner — Find unused behaviors, macros, combos, layers, and includes; report first, optionally remove.

7. Behavior Dependency Viewer — Visualize relationships such as:
   key → macro → behavior → layer, making dependencies easy to understand.

8. Layout Migration / Import Assistant — Safely import existing ZMK configurations into the GUI's internal representation without destroying hand-written configuration.

Tier 2 — High-value everyday automations

9. Caps Word — Add &caps_word with configurable key/combo trigger and continuation characters.

10. Mod-Morph Pack — Common Shift/modifier transformations such as:

• Shift+Backspace → Delete

• Shift+, → ;

• Shift+. → :

• Shift+Esc → ~

11. Quick Key Swaps — Simple one-to-one remapping across all layers or selected layers.

12. Combo Starter Pack — Common home-row bracket, quote, parenthesis, Esc, Tab, Enter and Backspace combos, with conflict/HRM awareness.

13. Combo Designer — Visual combo creation using the keyboard layout itself, including timeout and conflict warnings.

14. Macro Builder — Visual construction of press/release sequences, delays, layer operations, modifiers, and nested behaviors.

15. Home-Row Mod Tuner — GUI for tapping term, quick-tap, flavor, positional behavior, per-key overrides, and HRM presets.

Tier 3 — Connectivity and workflow

16. Bluetooth & Output Manager — Generate BT_SEL, BT_CLR, USB/BLE output bindings, with profile labels/decorations.

17. OS-Aware Shortcut Layers — Generate Windows/macOS shortcut layers from reusable shortcut packs.

18. Conditional Keymap Packs — Generalize the OS-aware system into reusable data-driven packs:

• Windows shortcuts

• macOS shortcuts

• IDE navigation

• media controls

• window management

• Vim navigation

• etc.

19. International Accents — Generate accent/dead-key/mod-morph configurations according to the user's OS/input method.

Tier 4 — Presentation / beginner experience

20. Auto-Labeler — Automatically label layers, Bluetooth profiles, macros, USB/BLE outputs, and other behaviors.

Package D: Executive Document Shortcuts

Goal: Single-key clipboard and formatting macros.

Single-Key Actions:

Smart Clipboard Key:

Single Tap: Copy (Ctrl + C / Cmd + C)

Double-Tap: Paste as Plain Text (Ctrl + Shift + V / Cmd + Option + Shift + V)
