+**Thoughts for the week**
+
+Monthly updates for Practicalli projects, driven by a scheduled version GitHub workflow that uses antq to report on project library dependencies and GitHub action library versions.
+
+- Release: Clojure CLI Config - 2024-07-07
+- Release: Project Templates - 2024-07-07
+
+Which-key version 3 released, fixing localleader issue and providing a horizontal menu option.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+## Neovim
+
+Which-key version 3 released and resolves the issue with the `localleader` key mapping not working until after the `leader` key has been pressed.
+
+New layout options for placement of the menu.  I find the vertical nature of the `helix` layout quicker to read than the horizontal `classic` or `modern` layouts.
+
+In AstroNvim, set the layout by adding a config for which-key to a user lua file, e.g. `lua/plugins/user-practicalli.lua`
+
+```lua title="lua/plugins/user-practicalli.lua"
+{
+  "folke/which-key.nvim",
+  ---@type false | "classic" | "modern" | "helix"
+  preset = "helix",
+}
+```
+
+Restart Neovim and the which-key will now show the new layout.
+

+Thank you.
