Default Configuration

TinyUnit comes with sensible defaults that you can override:

{
    window = {
        width = 30,         -- Width of the floating window
        height = 15,        -- Height of the floating window
        border = "rounded", -- Border style
        input_title = "Enter Value",
    },
    keymap = {
        open = "tc", -- Toggle converter window
        close = "q",         -- Close window
        convert = "",    -- Convert value
        escape = "",    -- Close window
    },
    units = {
        "px",
        "rem",
        "em",
        "vh",
        "vw",
        "mm",
        "cm",
        "in",
        "pt",
    },
