Gesture Ops
There are a lot of keyboard shortcuts available for blender user to use, and some of them are so hard to trigger, and you need to remembers a lot of shortcuts and you also forget some of them.
With Gesture Ops, you can trigger the same operations by using your mouse to draw some simple-pattern lines in the 3D View.
How to draw this pattern?
Pattern: ⇢⇢
You can just:
0. Press Ctrl or Shift and hold.
1. Left clicking anywhere in the 3D View, then drag your mouse from left to right, and then release the left mouse button to finish the first line.
2. Repeat (1) to draw another line. And you trigger the operator assigned to this pattern gesture.
See this video on how I simply switch between Object Mode and Select Mode:

How to assign operator to a pattern gesture?
Right click on a operator (like "Object Mode", "Select Mode" etc) to shows up a context menu, and choose "Copy Python Command", and paste it to the Add-on Preferences's Python Command text field.
Note: Ctrl + V (Command + V on macOS) to paste command.
