From the project

A split ergonomic keyboard with options for numpad, nav cluster, and more.

My primary keyboard for the last few years has been Prime Keyboards' primeo, before which I used a handwired Planck. On both I made pretty heavy use of the numpad. I grew to appreciate the prime\o's physical one, though, mostly because I spend a lot of time in Excel at my day job and like using the mouse and numpad simultaneously. I've been wanting to switch to ergo for a while, but I was annoyed by the thought of having to use a separate numpad to recreate that experience. This project was an attempt to solve that problem.
