About:
macSKK is a native macOS input method for the SKK (Simple Kana Kanji) system. It provides a lightweight, privacy-focused alternative to heavier IMEs, offering direct input of Japanese characters. The tool integrates seamlessly with macOS system input services for a smooth user experience.
Key Features:
  • Native macOS integration
  • Privacy-focused (offline processing)
  • Lightweight and fast performance
  • Supports Kana Kanji conversion
Use Cases:
  • Typing Japanese text on macOS
  • Users seeking a minimal, non-tracking input method
Alternatives:
  • Google Japanese Input – macSKK is offline and open-source, while Google IME requires internet and is proprietary
  • Kotoeri – macSKK offers SKK-specific features and customization not available in the default macOS IME
