## What it is
A curated Hammerspoon configuration written in Lua providing vim-style modal keybindings, window management, desktop widgets, an application launcher, instant search, and an aria2 frontend. It is installed by cloning into ~/.hammerspoon and is customizable via a private config file and built-in Spoons.

## Use cases
- manage macOS windows with vim-style keyboard shortcuts
- get a Hammerspoon config with desktop widgets and app launcher
- add an aria2 download frontend to my Mac desktop
- instant search launcher on macOS
- automate macOS with Lua keybindings
- modal keyboard-driven macOS productivity setup

## When to choose
- you use Hammerspoon on macOS and want a full-featured, ready-made modal config
- you want window management, widgets, and search wired up with vim-like keybindings
- you want a customizable dotfiles-style Hammerspoon setup with built-in Spoons

## When to avoid
- you are not on macOS or do not use Hammerspoon
- you want a polished standalone app rather than a Lua configuration you may need to tweak
- you need actively maintained software with recent releases
