From the project
Wireless split keyboard · nRF52840 · ZMK · hexagonal keycaps
Wireless split keyboard · nRF52840 · ZMK · hexagonal keycaps
A low-power, battery-powered wireless split keyboard. Each half is a fully independent BLE device with its own battery, per-key LEDs, and USB-C charging.
Right now: finishing the PCBs and panelizing for fabrication. After that: fabrication → SMT assembly → hand-soldering → firmware → testing → case design.
