Karabiner-elements: Documentation of "Complex Modifications"

[ELLIOTTCABLE]

I did a little searching through the Issues, and I almost can't believe that there isn't already an issue for this; but:

It appears there's no documentation, either in the app, README, or included "Documentation" link, about how to create new "complex" modifications. (My particular use-case at the moment: re-mapping the "application" key to ⌘␣, to invoke Spotlight.)

I've spent nearly my entire day looking for documentation on the complex modifications. What options we have to work with etc. If there is documentation somewhere, please let me know where it is. I've really enjoyed being able to use the "hyper" key, and this software can clearly do some amazing things. I just don't know what I can do with it other than copy things other people have already done.

I also looked for the documentation of "Complex Modifications", but I could not find it. For that reason, I created a web page that summarized the information I examined. However, this page is written in Japanese.
Therefore, please read using Google Translate etc. I hope that the information I have written will be of any use.

Got this working by parsing through source code and other people's gists. For me, I'd like to find information on every parameter of the conditions field, especially the bundle_identifiers.

For any english speakers, you can look at @s-show's site and more or less get an idea of what the parameters do.

@ELLIOTTCABLE
@tekezo has created a reference for 'complex_modifications'. The URL is here.
karabiner.json Reference Manual - Karabiner - Software for mac OS

This reference is very useful.

@s-show awesome! Now we just need to get @tekezo to add a link to that somewhere easier to find! 🤣
