    I'm glad you like it! :) Nope, no microcontroller for the keyboard, each key is wired to a gpio pin, and same for the two encoder pins. The code to make it work is here: https://github.com/a8ksh4/gpio-keyboard A script/service runs whe the OS boots, checks the state of the gpio pins 100 times a second, translates them to keypresses and signals to the uinput kernel module to generate keyboard and mouse stuff. You could do the same thing with a full keyboard layout and use a matrix rather than dedicated key->gpio.
