+I am currently working on redoing my keybinds for Hyprland, in what I call `hyprmode`:
+They are going to use submaps and will be significantly different, yet still familiar.
+This will enable me to have many more keybinds with reasonable starter bindings.
+I will also update Astal to have a mode indicator if `hyprmode` is enabled.
+
 ## Features
 - Astal4 based Status Bar and Quick Actions menu
     - System info

+# Hyprmode
+Using Vim Motions and in general vim-style commands is really neat - so why not apply to the Window Manager as well?
+
+## Mapping
+- `Super + W`: Manage windows (close windows, resize them, change split)
+- `Super + Y`: Workspace management (change workspace, move windows to workspaces)
+- `Super + C`: Notification management (dismiss notifications)
+- `Super + X`: Launch commands (for software)
+- `Super + D`: Device management (brightness, volume, media, etc)
+- `Super + S`: Screenshot
+
+There are several quick binds available, such as `Super + [0-9]` to switch workspaces, `Super + Shift + [0-9]` to move windows as well as `Super + [hjkl]` to move focus.
+
+Additionally, there are shortcuts to commonly used apps, such as `Super + Enter` for `kitty`, `Super + Shift + L` for `librewolf` and `Super + Space` for `rofi`
