The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Recommend MCU with dual USB - one host and one device IF?
If you are willing to try r/RISCV ones, then nanoCH32V203 (with two Full-Speed interfaces) and nanoCH32V305 (with one Full-Speed and one High-Speed interface) might be enough.

RP2040 based MCU for dactyl in the works
There are dual USB r/RISCV boards with GPIO pins exposed, like nanoCH32V203 and nanoCH32V305.
-
USB on pi pico
There are RISC-V MCUs that have two USB interfaces, but those are not supported by QMK yet. I tried some of those boards in kite project.
-
Dvorak with Qwerty hotkeys in Excel and Word
Kite has standard shortcuts option too, but it runs on dedicated MCU board, not host PC.
-
USB Dongle to convert Colemak keyboard to QWERTY keystrokes?
RISC-V boards cost $3-$6 depending if you want high speed USB or full speed one.
-
What is the go-to MCU if you need more pins than a promicro/elite?
u/Bounty1Berry is exploring RISC-V nanoCH32V305 board, but it's a new board that is not supported by (Q|T|Z)MK yet, so not really go-to option at this stage.
-
nanoCH32V003 board
Their earlier boards like nanoCH32V203 and nanoCH32V305 were more user friendly, one could flash those via USB without WCH-Link.
-
Hardware/software to run RISC-V ASM?
Muse Lab has MCU boards like nanoCH32V203 and nanoCH32V305.
-
Keymap iterator
It runs on nanoCH32V305 dual USB r/RISCV MCU board.

Invalid battery reporting using Supermini nRF52840 and ZMK
Either way, my advice is the same, first checkout this document which has known issues for a bunch of controller alternatives. Next, I'd recommend asking on the zmk discord since the zmk developers hang out there and are pretty active and helpful.
-
Elite-C header sockets
I'd give this a read. Should tell you everything you need to know.

Build the Kapl
Thank you! I have already connected the nrfmicro wireless controller to this board. It worked great!
-
Nice!nano
Or this one https://github.com/joric/nrfmicro I made it to my board and works perfectly and it’s relatively easy to build even with just solder iron.
-
RP2040 based MCU for dactyl in the works
the nrf micro project is open source so you can review the schematic as a starting point https://github.com/joric/nrfmicro

Aloidia v1: fully wireless, solar powered hotswap split keyboard. Hotswap encoders/navigation switch, memory displays, embedded tenting and more
If you can find nrf52 modules where you are then that's a good start, if you're not too scared of DIY intricate soldering then you can use them to build your own NRF micros. Ultimately the controller on these modules is the same as that of a nice!nano and if thus capable of running ZMK alone, there's not really a way as far as I know to pair them with a promicro or blackpill or similar to get a fully wireless solution.
- X-Bows FULLY SPLIT Keyboard is coming soon! Any suggestions?

Unable to find any example for Pico W and BLE connection.
