/**
 * Key overrides allow you to send a different key-modifier combination or perform a custom action when a certain modifier-key combination is pressed.
 *
 * For example, you may configure a key override to send the delete key when shift + backspace are pressed together, or that your volume keys become screen brightness keys when holding ctrl. The possibilities are quite vast and the documentation contains a few examples for inspiration.
 *
 * See the documentation and examples here: https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_key_overrides
