Reasons for using Mouseable, in Replacement of an Actual Computer Mouse

1. Better Productivity

   Ask yourself, do you use your mouse frequently (or at all) during programming? Is it really necessary? I think not. Since, you could very well perform most of the tasks in your workflow using various keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys, and achieve even better productivity and efficiency, as you would otherwise, achieve using a mouse. Every single action in your IDE of chocie will most likely have a binded shortcut. If you could familiarize yourself with just using a keyboard, instead of relying on a mouse, you will most likely attain way better productivity. For instance, in these common situations listed down below, you don't even need a mouse:

   • In IDE, use vim plugin and shortcuts.
   • In Browser, use Vimium
   • Other situations, use mouseable!

2. Health Benefits

   Using a mouse puts unnecessary strain on your wrist. As such, just place your wrists in front of your keyboard and maintain that position, instead of constantly having to move your wrist around while using a mouse!

3. Better Utilization of Existing Table Space

   Extra table space is required to use a computer mouse. Hence, keep your desk nice and free by putting away your mouse!

Limitations

• Windows Only
• It is a must to run Mouseable with administrator privileges, otherwise Mouseable will not work on system software such as Task Manager.
