  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Canary

    Canary keyboard layout (by Apsu)

  • I use hrm with canary layout, which puts the most used keys on the home row, so that means that I tap on the hrm keys the most. And I have pretty much 0 mistakes.

  • miryoku_qmk

    Miryoku is an ergonomic, minimal, orthogonal, and universal keyboard layout. Miryoku QMK is the Miryoku implementation for QMK.

  • From what I understand this is enabled by default in Miryoku? Looking at this file: https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku_qmk/blob/miryoku/users/manna-harbour_miryoku/config.h

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • nixconfig

  • Shift was annoying to me, so I moved it to a thumb key. I also have cut copy paste on a layer too since I tend to rush when pressing it. Layers need to be instant for me too. Callum feels like too much work, and this is a happy medium. Here's a pic of my layout https://github.com/dlip/nixconfig/blob/master/keymaps/README.md

  • qmk_firmware

    keyboard controller firmware for Atmel AVR USB family (by callum-oakley)

  • Callum's README

  • Check out https://zmk.dev/docs/config/behaviors#sticky-key for sticky keys with quick release and sticky layers. I am using them on the thumbs in the colemak layer in https://github.com/ClickyFingerz/zmk-config-corne-view/blob/main/config/corne.keymap if you'd like to see some examples.

  • qmk_firmware

    Open-source keyboard firmware for Atmel AVR and Arm USB families

  • qmk_firmware

    See the "forkreadme" branch or the following link for a description of branches maintained in this fork. (by manna-harbour)

  • I had trouble with HMR as well at the beginning, but since switching to sunaku's fork/PR I've almost eliminated all the issues I had with it. And worth mentioning is urob's timeless HMR config from which I think the fork/PR takes some of its inspiration.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
