## Vibes

- [Tactus](https://vibelab.in/vatz/tactus) — Tactus is a free, open-source macOS menu bar app that makes your Mac feel more physical. It gives every keystroke a real recorded mechanical keyboard sound — with spacebar, shift, enter and other stabilised keys recorded separately, so they sound genuinely deeper than letter keys — and adds a fidget drawer of clicky toys you can open from the menu bar for ten seconds of stress relief.

Built in native Swift with sub-millisecond audio latency, around 5 MB, and it collects nothing: keystrokes trigger a sound and are discarded, never logged or transmitted.

A shorter version:

Tactus — a menu bar app that gives your Mac real mechanical keyboard sounds and a drawer of fidget toys. Free, open source, and nothing leaves your machine.
