This is my configuration for Karabiner-Elements, a powerful and low-level keyboard manipulation tool. Karabiner is one of the main reasons I choose to stay with macOS while there are too many troubles to implement the same/similar layout in GNU/Linux distributions (I really tried...maybe later...).

brew cask install karabiner-elements
