Microcontroller: Arduino pro micro clone. Sells for peanuts on Ali Express. I have no coding experiennowledge. I tried to use this guide, but it only made the controller show up as a generic controller on windows/Linux. SF6 Didn't recognise the controller. So I programmed the Arduino as a keyboard and now it works fine on PC and Steam Deck.
What upgrades would you recommend as an improvement on this? - Use keyboard layout editor to design a backplate and pay a local lasercutter to cut a metal sheet for you. I'd recommend buying a pre-made bamboo storage box for a few £s and use that as your box. If I didn't already have the Arduino, I'd get a Raspberry Pi pico clone and use better premade firmware.
congrats on the build & thank you for sharing your experience! if I may suggest you to take a look at the open source project using the Raspberry Pi Pico and other boards based on the RP2040 microcontrollers. https://github.com/OpenStickCommunity/GP2040-CE
