AquaSKK is a free, open-source input method for macOS that enables efficient Japanese text input using the SKK (Simple Kana to Kanji conversion) system. It converts hiragana to kanji without requiring morphological analysis, making it lightweight and responsive for Japanese language users. The app is particularly popular among programmers, writers and professionals who work extensively with Japanese text. AquaSKK runs as a system input method and can be seamlessly switched alongside other keyboard layouts, with full customisation of dictionary and conversion rules.
