sweep36 VS qmk_firmware

there is the sweep (https://github.com/davidphilipbarr/Sweep). Also there are some sweep variants with 36 keys (https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36)

At the time I liked the sweep but there was no 36 option until /u/sadekbaroudi created one: https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36

With 36 keys you don’t need another controller, just use more pins of elite-c or nice nano. Here is an example of boards with 36 keys without using diodes: https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36

Take a look at the swweeep case, as I took this exact approach: https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36/tree/master/cases/swweeep

https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/sweep36 - this derivative of the sweep adds a 3rd thumb key and perkey LEDs to some of his versions.

I want to build a swweeep, a wireless 36-keys variant of the sweep.

have you already picked up the board and parts? The Sweep36 has oled, rgb, 2 extra keys and remains diodeless due to using an elite-c controller which exposes 5 more GPIO.

For the software side, do you mean writing firmware for a pcb in general, or all the fingerpunch features added on to QMK? (See this: https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/qmk_firmware/tree/develop_fingerpunch/keyboards/fingerpunch/README.md )

sweeeeep doesn't have community layout support enabled, but you can do it with some small edits: Add LAYOUTS = split_3x5_3 to https://github.com/sadekbaroudi/qmk_firmware/blob/master/keyboards/fingerpunch/sweeeeep/rules.mk and add #define LAYOUT_split_3x5_3 LAYOUT_sweeeeep to
