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.

I built a keyboard PCB and wrote firmware for it in Rust
There was also one more reason I chose the RP2040 - I saw quite a few RPi Pico boards at Yushakobo, including one called RustyKeys. The firmware for that board showed me how simple it could be to write my own keyboard firmware and was a major source of inspiration. Just knowing that something can be done makes it a lot easier to do it.

Nyan Keys - An FPGA Based Mechanical Keyboard I Engineered for Low Latency - Open Source
Nice - a friend and I worked on my keyboard's debouncer and call it "eager debouncing", not sure if there's an official term for it. I agree that it's much better for latency.

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
Awhile ago I made an remote infrared sending tool so a raspberry pi can control my A/C unit
https://blog.bschwind.com/2016/05/29/sending-infrared-comman...
Since then I made a much slimmer, cheaper, more efficient version based on the ESP32 but I haven't written up much about that.
I also created my own keyboard with firmware in Rust

I've done a bunch of other small one-off projects too.

2nd post about my first pcb(added pictures)
Good luck! I have an open source keyboard project in KiCad as well, feel free to reference or use anything from it.

Yet another keyboard post, or, introducing ErgoNICE
Not sure if the author of the post is around, but I guess this is a question for anyone who has designed keyboards: have you ever tried using shift registers for reading all the keyswitch inputs, and is it worth it? Does it mean you don't have to use a diode per switch?
I've designed my own as well but just went with the traditional key matrix with a diode per switch. Works well enough for the current size.

[Review Request] RP2040-based keyboard
All the source files can be found here
- Point keycaps? Yes.

Drop Giveaway Day 2 - 5x DCX Dolch Keycap Sets
I made my own keyboard layout just the way I want so I would put these caps on that, or replace the stock caps that came with my Filco board.

Twist looks awesome, I'd put it on my key-ripper

Can you run rust on the new raspberry pi pico w?
You can absolutely run Rust on the pico - I designed a keyboard with Rust firmware which runs on an RP2040. That being said, wireless functionality might not be existent yet in the Rust world for the Pico W, but I'm sure it won't take long to get added.

[Review] RP2040 Keypad
I looked at the schematic and it seems reasonable. I just completed an RP2040 project with USB C and it works correctly. You can see the project files here
