dactyl-flatpacked VS kb-layout-evaluation

There's been a few curvy keyboards made out of laser-cut pieces - one with acrylic and a single curve, and one more recently ... as I recall, made from thin (1/8") MDF, with a double curve. (Oho, here's a non-ergo laser-cut from cardboard) Aha, https://github.com/nickcoutsos/dactyl-flatpacked!

It looks too be based on my https://github.com/nickcoutsos/dactyl-flatpacked but I can tell there are some customizations, most notably the thumb cluster. Would be interesting to see what else has changed.

Are you aware of the flatpacked dactyl and the Acrylic_3D_KB?

Funny, I was just looking at this guy recently https://github.com/nickcoutsos/dactyl-flatpacked

Maybe you can get Portuguese bigrams frequency and run this: https://github.com/bclnr/kb-layout-evaluation I don’t know how different it is from French or Spanish.

I wrote a layout analyzer at some point and that was the reasoning.

And indeed quantitative studies tend to show that Colemak can be very good for other languages, for instance French: https://github.com/bclnr/kb-layout-evaluation (although you need to modify it slightly to add accented characters to reasonable spots). Interestingly enough, French variant of Qwerty (Azerty) is much worse than Colemak or anything.

A while ago I coded a little comparison between layouts to help me with that decision, you might find it useful: https://github.com/bclnr/kb-layout-evaluation

On that topic some might be interested in this little analysis:

These scoring systems already exist. Here's the first one I found: https://github.com/bclnr/kb-layout-evaluation
