About:
Scoot is a keyboard-driven cursor actuator that allows users to move the mouse pointer with precision using keyboard shortcuts. It eliminates the need for a physical mouse or trackpad, making it ideal for power users who prefer keeping their hands on the keyboard. The tool provides smooth, grid-based navigation for efficient screen interaction.

Key Features:

Keyboard-only cursor control
Grid-based navigation system
Customizable key bindings
High-precision movement
Minimal interface distraction

Use Cases:

Accessibility assistance for users with motor impairments
Productivity enhancement for keyboard-centric workflows
Precision clicking on small UI elements without a mouse

Alternatives:

MouseKeys – Built-in macOS accessibility feature, less configurable than Scoot
Karabiner-Elements – General-purpose key remapper with mouse keys, more complex setup
