If you don't want the default assignments to be registered, you can
disable all of them with this configuration; if you chose to do this,
you must explicitly register every binding.

```lua
config.disable_default_key_bindings = true
```

!!! tip
    When using `disable_default_key_bindings`, it is recommended that you
    assign [ShowDebugOverlay](lua/keyassignment/ShowDebugOverlay.md) to
    something to aid in potential future troubleshooting.

    Likewise, you may wish to assign
    [ActivateCommandPalette](lua/keyassignment/ActivateCommandPalette.md).
