Actiona

Actiona is an automation tool that allows you to execute many actions on your computer such as emulating mouse clicks, key presses, showing message boxes, editing text files, etc. Tasks can be created using a simple editor or using the EcmaScript (JavaScript) programming language for more customization. Actiona is cross-platform.

Please visit actiona.tools and the Discord server for more information.
