Karabiner script to map new Macbook Globe🌐/fn key to open Mumu emoji picker

Requirements

1. Mumu emoji picker https://getmumu.com/
2. Karabiner https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/

Setup

1. On Mumu, set keyboard shortcut to Cmd + Shift + Space
2. Copy the JSON file below to ~/.config/karabiner/assets/complex_modifications
3. On Karabiner, go to Complex modifications tab, click on Add rule button and the added modification JSON should appear in the list. Click Enable to enable it.
4. Done.

Feel free to customize the shortcut, the keys or the JSON file.

globe2keys.json

{
  "title": "Change Globe (fn) to other keys",
  "rules": [
    {
      "description": "Change Globe (fn) to other keys, if alone",
      "manipulators": [
        {
          "type": "basic",
          "from": {
            "key_code": "fn"
          },
          "to_if_alone": [
            {
              "key_code": "spacebar",
              "modifiers": [
                "left_command",
                "left_shift"
              ]
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

I needed to put a to condition with key_code: fn to keep previous functionality while using it with DEL key. 👍
