00Key a 75% Keyboard
I only use keyboards running QMK or ZMK, so:
My Caps Lock key is a Control/Escape key (when tapped it behave like a Escape, when hold it's Control), and my left Control is a one shot layer switch key [1], which means I tap LCtrl once, and then press Caps Lock + 5 to get Ctrl+F5. Doable with single hand and more ergonomic as I have an unusually small hand.

Principles for Keyboard Layouts (2022)
I agree that reduced finger movement is a crucial step in achieving typing efficiency. This is nicely solved by mod tap modifiers in QMK/ZMK[1] where key acts as a char when tapped and as a layer while pressed.

Debugging a Failing Hotkey
If you have a keyboard that runs QMK firmware[0] with the VIA[1] feature enabled[2], then there is a convenient testing app available from the same place you customize your keys [3].

Just setting up my first corne layout. It will take a while for me to get used to this wow... It's taking so long to type. Attached is my layout, and I mainly use c# on visual studio. Any concerns/advice/suggestions are welcome. It will take a while for me to reply on this thing though.. haha..
I made a layout that I'm happy with. Spanish is my native language, so it has characters like the accents and 'ñ', but it's meant to be used for programming as well. Visual Studio uses a lot of Ctrl and Ctrl + Shift shortcuts, so I left them in the same place as the default Corne layout so I can press them both with my pinkie finger. Perhaps some of the ideas are useful to you.

Adafruit Feather RP2040 with USB Type A Host as a QMK converter board?
Also, it would be possible to do this for the RP2040. However, it needs some work to get working. but for example: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/20999

If anyone knows of a good tutorial on how to make this tft display useful on a board controlled by an rp2040 and flashed with qmk configurator, I would be most grateful if you could point me in that direction. Gracias!
Ok, it's an ST7735, not too different from the ST7789. You should be able to get running by looking at their files in the QMK repo and going from there. You should also check their resources page.

HP 200 LX Keyboard Adapter
I'm working on a project at the moment, basically sticking a raspberry pi into the case of an old 200LX palmtop computer that broke on me. The start of this project is to adapt the old keyboard so that it can be used as a standard USB keyboard. I used an old Teensy 2.0 microcontroller and kbfirmware.com (very old i know) to so this, along with a custom interposer PCB to adapt the very weird pad spacing on the keyboard connector to the Teensy.

I have created the firmware here

Custom QMK firmware help
In general you search the qmk repo for your mcu, then pick similar keyboard to your own, then hand edit the layout.h file and keymap.c. a macropad should be easy to figure out. for complex layouts such as a fullsize you could use a broken code generator such as https://kbfirmware.com/

Which keyboard would you recommend for a beginner
Idk man, I binge watched more hours of keyboard content, than I'd ever like to admit with how little I've done with that. I guess, I get obsessive easily.Check out Joe Scotto for amazingly clean and tidy handwired boards, Ben Vallack for insane minimalistic crazy designs and layout content.There's Keyboard Layout Editor that works nicely with plate generator and QMK firmware generator so there's one workflow. Also check out ergogen, it's amazing, although I didn't learn KiCAD yet, so never used it to create anything more than a quick visualisation. There's lots of great materials on how keyboards are build and how they work. QMK docs have very insightful handwiring guide.

I printed an ortho 41 Key and named it after my dog
This is Stardust, named after my dog Ziggy. It's a 41 Key Ortho. My goal with this keyboard was to be able to see if I could fully realize it without ordering anything besides switches. I used an old blank ABS keycap set, some stabs I had laying around, and a Elite C controller. Then I 3D printed the case, and added M2 bolts and threaded inserts to hold it together. I ordered Kiwi switches and designed everything myself using Keyboard Layout Editor, ai03 Plate Generator, KBFirmware and Fusion 360. It was printed on an Ender 3.

Want to build a 60% Keyboard
I tried to wire everything up in rows and columns and followed that through kbfirmware.com
-
Update: I almost got it working
I used this site https://kbfirmware.com. I’ll have to check the idea with the reset pin. Thanks. But I thought the MCU resets if the pin is connected to ground.
- wanted to build this board but i dont have the time to do the pcb..anybody knows a similiar board?

I'm getting this while trying to reflash my pro micro, I have no idea what to do here. The solutions for the butterfly error didn't work out.
I didn't actually write the code, it was a hardwire I designed. I used kbfirmware.com, all I have is a file.
