Installation

Windows

Click here to download the Windows installer.

After doing that, go to File Explorer and unzip the file. One way you can do this is by right-clicking the file and selecting "Extract All" from the dropdown menu. Enter the new folder, double click setup.exe and go through the installer. The layout should now be installed - restarting is a good idea but might not be necessary.

MacOS

Click here to download the MacOS installer.

Double click on the dmg file you downloaded and follow the directions.

Linux

Click here to download the Linux XKB file.

Move the file to the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols directory. You can do this by opening a terminal and running:

sudo mv Downloads/canary /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols

To use the layout, run the following command:

setxkbmap canary

If you are using Wayland, setxkbmap won't work directly. Instead, you need to add the layout manually and apply it using localectl or your desktop environment settings. You may also need to modify /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.xml or evdev.lst to make the system recognize the layout.

To apply the layout using localectl, run:

localectl set-x11-keymap canary

After making these changes, logging out and back in might be necessary for the layout to take effect.
