InputMethodKit provides the components for building input methods on macOS, the software that turns user input into text for the system. You implement an IMKInputController to receive and interpret input events, and run it through an IMKServer that connects your input method to the text input system. The framework also supplies IMKCandidates for presenting candidate windows during text entry, along with the IMKStateSetting and IMKMouseHandling protocols for managing input state and handling mouse interaction.
