EurKEY: The European Keyboard Layout – For Europeans, Coders and Translators
See qwerty-fr[1] for a keyboard layout that is based on QWERTY but with a sane placement of keys contrary to US international.

Toward a More Useful Keyboard
If you're in need of AZERTY-specific keys and you're on a QWERTY layout, take a look at https://github.com/qwerty-fr/qwerty-fr.
It's a strict superset of QWERTY, and it enables entering e.g. è and È with altgr+e and shift+altgr+e respectively.

Show HN: Proposal for a new keyboard layout paradigm
Contrary to QWERTY-fr, you can't type accentuated letters directly with the Spanish layout[1]. I find that it considerably lowers my speed when typing French.
I agree that QWERTY-fr looks bloated on the first look, but the position of keys actually make sense so it is super easy to learn. I recommend you to read the philosophy[2] behind this keyboard layout.
What do you think?

Turning a Keyboard into a Mouse with Libevdev
And for Windows, my https://github.com/esporttoys/TPMouse was inspired by warpd itself but focuses more on the intuitive usability of direct cursor control via inertia/momentum.

Cosmic Skies of a Colorado July
You may be interested in how I did my Windows script for adding three-finger drag[0].
Basically, it is an independent subscriber to RawInput messages that only keeps track of whether or not to send three-finger drag, and posts emulated mouse messages using SendInput. I have a few other scripts that each run as independent userland processes that only monitors their own trigger and nothing else.
Tangentially, not sure if this might serve for some inspiration, but my TPMouse[1] script implemented inertia in a framerate-independent way so that it uses very little resource while having perfect simulation stability.
A previous discussion where I explained the analytic derivation for this low-resource exact-solution damped inertia can be seen in [10]

Toward a More Useful Keyboard
With the TPMouse script I implemented the activation shortcut as LShift+RShift+ which I felt had a nice balance between deliberateness and easy-to-reach (since you are using it with your hands on homerow).
Though because some keyboards have key rollover issues with using both Shifts, Capslock+ is also allowed as an alternative activation shortcut.

AutoHotKey V2 (Breaking Upgrade)
I personally use AutoIt a ton as a super fast way to quickly prototype GUIs. It's basically a really simple entrypoint for WinAPI.
Shameless plug: my script for emulating a trackball with your keyboard [0], and my tray app for quickly tweaking your cursor speed (usually for when I'm drawing something)[1]
