BindBoard is a macro keyboard app for Windows. Assign actions to keys on a second keyboard — your main keyboard keeps working as normal.
Built on Windows Raw Input API — no drivers, no third-party software required.

- 🎹 Per-device key interception — keys from the second keyboard trigger actions; your main keyboard is untouched
- 🗂 Modes — create multiple binding profiles and switch between them with a single key press
- 🖥 Mode overlay — a brief on-screen hint appears whenever you switch modes
- 🚀 Action types — open a URL, launch a program or shortcut, start a Steam game, play a sound via Soundpad, or switch mode
- 🔍 App & game picker — browse installed programs and Steam games by name, no manual path or ID entry needed
- 🌐 English & Russian UI — language is detected automatically from your system locale
- 🔔 System tray — closing the window minimizes to tray; the listener keeps running in the background
