From the project

This is my submission for the hackpad mission! This is my first time using KiCad and Autodesk Fusion so I'm not very experienced. Decided to make this because I wanted to make some automation easier, as it binds the keys to F13-19, which are unused usually.

It also includes a bongo cat animation, that activates when you press any key on the macropad. Code is from github over here.
