Making a Keyboard Layout
You could try to use https://github.com/manna-harbour/xmk from the same developer in order to run Miryoku on every keyboard.
-
Is it possible to connect both sides individually with two separate USB cables?
I have a software solution for that, but it's Linux only, and also you'd have to use KMonad or 𝑥MK for the keymap.
- Any suggestions microcontroller with wireless USB capabilities?
- Controlling Neovim with Streamdeck
-
Is it possible to have a transparency of your keymap on screen?
https://github.com/manna-harbour/xmk might be able to support dynamic options.
-
ELI5 hold-preferred, balanced, tap-preferred or tap-unless-interrupted for layer toggle and home row mods?
Sounds like a nice project! Also consider using the record mode of 𝑥MK for this.

𝑥MK: Use programmable keyboard firmware with any keyboard.
It works in a VM on Windows, with usbip for communication. See https://github.com/manna-harbour/xmk/discussions/4. That might also be possible on macOS, see this comment.

Looks nice. I can recommend the following graphical configurator: https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor

Happy 2nd birthday to my Moonlander!
I haven't looked into QMK configurators because if I go to the trouble of building a keeb I'd go all out and make it wireless. I did look at [keymap editor](https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor) for ZMK, which could be close enough to Oryx for me to try sometime.
- Does Kinesis 360 Editor support all functions?
-
72+ key Split Travel Column Staggered Keyboard
The only other thing I could recommend in that case is custom built; it's easier than you'd think, and some people have made GUI interfaces for ZMK like this: https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor

How To Setup VIA On Any QMK Keyboard
I know ZMK does not have an official one, but there's one that uses github actions in order to build a firmware for you after you commit your keymap. That's probably the closest we'll have to zmk configurator for a while https://github.com/nickcoutsos/keymap-editor
- I finished low profile, wireless Corne. All is nice but I am disappointed with the battery life. Any suggestions?
