Minimalist tools so light, they might just ascend into the cloud and become sentient.
Lean.AF is a hackable suite of ultra-light power tools, inspired by suckless tools and based on AHK v2, for users who demand speed, clarity, and zero bloat. No background services. No update nags. No RAM inflation. Just pure, composable functionality.
Whether you're managing your workspace, launching apps, controlling volume, toggling Fn keys, or vibing to FLACs — Lean.AF makes it feel like cheating.
AutoHotkey‑based applications can sometimes trigger antivirus false positives and since this project is build with AutoHotkey it can also give the same false positives. If LeanAF.exe SHA‑256 hash matches the one published on this site and inside the zip, and any antivirus warnings are identical to those reported for AutoHotkey.exe itself, you can be confident the file has not been tampered with. More info
Unzip anywhere you want and run. To update just replace everything except your .ini and .json files. This will keep your settings intact.
There are absolutely no bugs. None. Zero. LeanAF is smooth and bugless.
But hypothetically — if a bug did sneak in (👀), remember: you paid $100 for a AAA game that crashes on the title screen. So toss some crypto ₿₿₿ in the jar, file a bug report on Discord, and if your report makes us laugh hard enough, you’ll get Lean.AF for free. (Which is redundant, but still legendary.)
