Summary of Changes

Hello @kubrickcode, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the user experience by introducing multi-language keyboard layout conversion for shortcuts. It allows users to input shortcuts using their native keyboard layouts across 15 different languages, automatically mapping them to the corresponding English shortcuts. This eliminates the need for users to constantly switch keyboard input methods, making the application more accessible and intuitive for a global audience.

Highlights

  • Multi-Language Keyboard Support: Introduced a new module to convert keyboard layouts, enabling users to use shortcuts in 15 different languages without switching their input method.
  • Broad Language Coverage: Added support for Korean, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, German, Spanish, Czech, Greek, Persian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Kazakh, Japanese, Chinese, and Hindi.
  • External Library Integration: Incorporated convert-layout, wanakana, pinyin, and @indic-transliteration/sanscript for robust language conversion capabilities.
  • Comprehensive Testing: Included extensive unit tests for the new keyboard layout conversion logic to ensure accuracy across all supported languages.
  • Documentation Updates: The README.md has been updated to highlight the new multi-language keyboard shortcut capabilities and their benefits.
  • New Coding Guidelines: A new .claude/CODING_GUIDE.md file has been added, outlining coding style and TypeScript guidelines for the project.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant and valuable feature: multi-language keyboard support for shortcuts. The implementation is well-structured, with a dedicated module for layout conversion (keyboard-layout-converter.ts) and comprehensive unit tests covering all 15 new languages. The addition of TypeScript type definitions for external dependencies is also a great practice.

My review focuses on adherence to the project's coding style guide and a potential performance optimization. I've identified a few areas where the code can be improved to better align with the style guide, particularly regarding the use of type over interface and sorting object properties. I've also suggested an optimization in the shortcut matching logic to ensure good performance as the number of commands grows.

Overall, this is a solid contribution that greatly enhances the extension's usability for a global audience. The changes are well-tested and thoughtfully implemented.

Code Review

This pull request introduces an excellent new feature for multi-language keyboard shortcut support, which is a great enhancement for non-English speaking users. The implementation is well-structured, leveraging external libraries effectively and including a comprehensive set of new files for logic, types, and tests. My review focuses on improving performance, adhering more strictly to the coding style guide, enhancing error handling consistency, and strengthening the new unit tests. I've also identified areas with code duplication that could be refactored for better maintainability.
