# libxkbcommon
libxkbcommon is a keymap compiler and support library which processes a
reduced subset of keymaps as defined by the XKB specification.
## Quick Guide
See [Quick Guide](doc/quick-guide.md).
## API
While libxkbcommon's API is somewhat derived from the classic XKB API as found
in X11/extensions/XKB.h and friends, it has been substantially reworked to
expose fewer internal details to clients.
See the [API Documentation](http://xkbcommon.org/doc/current/modules.html).
## Dataset
libxkbcommon does not distribute a keymap dataset itself, other than for
testing purposes. The most common dataset is xkeyboard-config, which is used
by all current distributions for their X11 XKB data. More information on
xkeyboard-config is available here:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/XKeyboardConfig
## Relation to X11
See [Compatibility](doc/compat.md) notes.
## Development
An extremely rudimentary homepage can be found at
http://xkbcommon.org
