quid-games VS ergopad

Github: https://github.com/hypo10use/quid-games

it has been a pleasure to partake in this hackathon and we will for sure not miss the third round of this. We had an amazing weekend with a very steep learning curve where we have explored lot of the ergo blockchain and its toolsets, also brining some of them to their limits like the ergoscala on scastie. Our repo can be reached from this link https://github.com/hypo10use/quid-games. The deployment onto testnet/mainnet is still pending and we will be working in the coming days/weeks to take this project live and continuously work on it. Therefore, each part can be tested/observed individually, but not in an end-to-end scenario yet. We would be happy to share and demonstrate our progress with the team and gather feedback to improve our game.

If you have a decently sized touchscreen device, there's ergopad that lets you create a cloud of points with your fingers and average out the layout of respective key columns. However, it's limited to flat layout only.

If you have a Large enough tpuch screen device https://pashutk.com/ergopad/

If you want to design your own you could use ergopad.

Choc switches can have a smaller spacing depending on the keycaps used, and are low profile, sadly no comercial keeb (to my knowledge) uses this spacing (MX spacing top, choc spacing bottom), but you can find resources to make your own on r/ErgoMechKeyboards, or find someone that takes commissions. Also another benefit of a DIY keeb is that the layout can be made based on yours or your wife hand (on a tablet https://pashutk.com/ergopad/), so even more confortable.

you can use Ergopad to see what your personal stagger (and splay) is

I used Ergopad and TOTEM's layout as base. Less GPIO on Xiao was easier to manage since I was looking at other similar keyboards and copying schematics / track connections.

ergopad?

So I'm currently in the process of designing my first keyboard, because I went too deep into the rabbit hole and wanted to start with the hardest possible difficulty level. What helped me start out was this keyboard layout comparison site, ergopad (a site where you can "measure" your fingers' reach if you have a tablet) and actually printing out one of those paper keyboard testers. I know there is one for the Kyria, but other keyboards have them as well. Put a piece of wood underneath for a realistic height, tried some tenting and just typed some words on the paper to get a feel for it. That really helped me figure out where I want the keys to be, can recommend.
