Kaleidoscope VS fastled-wasm

The price for everything is 290 USD (or 265 EUR) + shipping cost. It is about 100 less than currently listed on keyboard.io (when buying with a stand kit and blank keycaps set) and the shipping cost will also be significantly lower (it is over 50 USD to Europe currently considering taxes and customs).

You can read more about the implementation here: https://github.com/keyboardio/Kaleidoscope/tree/master/plugins/Kaleidoscope-Qukeys

Cool! I think I can follow the code now. I'm working with the Kaleidoscope developers to try to make your work a plugin for their ecosystem (github issue) since it works so well (as long as that's OK with you?). I really like TPMouse, but I split my time 50/50 between Windows and Linux. For now I'm going to see if I can port the core of your code to C++. I frankly don't understand most of the supporting code, but I'm confident in my ability to do numerical computing lol.

It’s not really what most people think of as “affordable” but the Model 100 by keyboard.io is an amazing, comfortable, very flexible keyboard. And thanks to the Model 100 finally coming out you can find the previous version (the Model 01) for a lot less, although the switches on the Model 01 tend to fail fairly easily so I can only really recommend that if you’re good at soldering (the Model 100 uses much better switches which are also much easier to replace).

keyword.io works.

It's sitting on the shelf because I'm still extremely slow at typing on a new layout, but I do love the look and feel of my https://keyboard.io model 01

I love my keyboard.io. It’s ergonomic, beautiful, and programmable.

The Atreus is a 5x4 split with 4 extras in the middle. There a few examples out there, one of them is offered by keyboard.io here https://shop.keyboard.io/products/keyboardio-atreus

Take a look at the r/FastLED wiki here in the section "Online FastLED Simulators". It's a lot easier than porting your code to Java/Processing. There's also Jan Delgado's FastLED-WASM.

Then I slightly modified the examples so the actual rendering is just a function which writes to an array of CRGB values (smiliar to before, but not using global variables). For an example look here.

Great work! And fun timing - this similar project https://github.com/jandelgado/fastled-wasm popped up on Reddit today. It simulates the FastLED library running on an arduino.

There’s also some similar work here: https://github.com/wokwi/avr8js although this does not use wasm, rather it emulates the AVR instructions from the built hex object.
