Add predictive keystrokes

Description

Something that would dramatically improve the usability of Scribe is the addition of predictive keystrokes. After #26 adds key characters popping up after being pressed and #2 and #3 add auto correct and auto complete, the last major element that could be added to the keyboards to improve efficiency would be predicting which key the user will press next and making that key easier to press.

The most basic version of this feature would change the expansions of key press areas within the keyboard key class so that there is a slightly higher chance that a user presses a key based on the previous ones pressed. Future versions of this feature could then expand on this if needed.

Contribution

I’d be very happy to discuss and work on this with people :)

Start by reviewing the keyboard key class and the related work in issues #26, #2, and #3. Determine how key press areas are currently expanded and how prior keystrokes could influence them. Done would require an agreed predictive behavior and validation that likely next keys become easier to press without harming normal keyboard use.
