Apple’s macOS Sierra broke Karabiner key mappings for programmers. Here’s how to work around.

Karabiner Windows
Common case for a developer is to have backtick, caret and possibly something else easily accessible, but while Karabiner devs are still working on a fix for macOS Sierra a workaround is needed.
Good alternative that gets the job done well, is Keyboard Maestro. It’s comprehensive and GUI is similar to Apple’s Automator, so one can get away without coding.
I'm using Karabiner elements, an open-source program to remap the keys on my macbook air (running the latest Mac OSX High Sierra) and my apple wireless keyboard. It works very nicely. If you’re running High Sierra (10.13), Sierra (10.12), or El Capitan (10.11), upgrade to macOS Catalina from the App Store. If you’re running Lion (10.7) or Mountain Lion (10.8), you will need to upgrade to El Capitan (10.11) first. If you don’t have broadband access, you can upgrade your Mac at any Apple Store. 20-May-2019 10:33:10 #1 Karabiner.json for Extend Layer (For macOS Sierra) I've been using the Extend Mod by DreymaR on my Windows PC and has found it to be quite useful, but was unable to find a Mac version of it that works on OS X Sierra. Karabiner-Elements is a powerful utility for keyboard customization on macOS Sierra or later. You may want to check out more software for Mac, such as Watcher, PasswordWallet or Protect Files, which might be similar to Karabiner-Elements.
My own Keyboard Maestro macros consist of just 2 things (

and ^
) for Estonian keyboard layout. Feel free to fork and adjust.
